Trimpe Godzilla art question 1 1

[All-Star Squadman]

My fave splash is to issue #23, Godzilla in Times Square! 

Close enough to the SHIELD Hellicarrier to take a bite out of it.

I remember speaking to Anthony years ago about Godzilla art and I think he said this particular cover meant a lot to him because he either lives or lived in Vegas at one time, or something along those lines...I believe you're right that it may be a situation where he'd just as soon not part with it unless it's for the proverbial "offer you can't refuse." Which I get. I wonder if other sellers will see prices like these and overvalue the Godzilla pages they have...like I said, I wouldn't complain if one could actually realize these prices, as it would make my pages worth more, but if I'm being honest I don't think the demand is there. It's like how Sal Buscema Rom pages were cheap, then shot up because there were a couple of folks who were willing to pay big money for them, and now there's a correction going on as those collectors seem to have obtained enough examples and prices are falling more in line with general demand.

Anthony's dad was Jimmy 'the Greek' Snyder, one of the most influential people in sports gambling history. It makes sense he would have this cover in his collection...

I was lucky to own this beautiful splash page from issue 14 for many, many years until I sold it last year to another boardie. I truly loved this page and I do have a bit of seller's remorse but I do take comfort in that it went to a fellow Godzilla lover who will cherish it every bit that I did.

great page!!
