It should not get deleted !

It is information that should get shared, especially the altering of pieces.

Just added a nice Spectacular Spider-Ham Cover :

Done by David Nakayama. He agreed to draw this one traditionally instead of digitally. He knocked that one out of the ballpark.

That splash is killer ! Very cool.

Thanks! Spoke with the owner about this a little while ago, it’s a great page, but I’m still on the hunt!

That is a fantastic page ! And good buy !

If not a page like this, what are you looking for ?

Look he is an art dealer. They have to flip and if they don’t make profit they don’t find new old collections and pieces for us to buy. Right ?

What is bad is to alter the art and sell it without letting folks know at 3 or 4 times the price or 4 times the market value.

But I guess we all know who they are.

Very nice !!

They pop up on eBay occasionally.

just recently there were 2 for sale and they sold at roughly 120 for both.

Here's an article about it.
 

I am once again surprised about the silence about names. It should be information that is shared.

We have a thread about flipping art and calling out names, but the topic of prominent dealers and names about this are kept a secret.

I still don’t get why nobody puts names to these stories.

Do we have names?

Good article.

What about the „prominent art dealer“ of the other article?

I still don’t get why nobody puts names to these stories.

And how did the price change 🤷‍♂️?

Which McSpidey cover ?

The D‘bros turn any page into a cover 🤷‍♂️.

I think here you will find all the answers. He is mostly digital, on occasion he draws traditionally.

The TEC 1019 was done traditionally but I am sure the colored image that you show on top was digitally enhanced. Isn’t that common practice nowadays.

I started a similar post a while ago, I called it the black hole, but apparent was misunderstood. 

For years now I notice that most big ticket items, even average items disappear after they are being auctioned off.

I mean there are 600 items in an auction and how many show up afterwards?

Very sad ! 

It’s a shame and as classic as these pieces are, it’s beyond disrespectful. 

And what bothers me even more, I had reached out to Golden at one point regarding a redo of a cover, never heard back from him or his rep.

As Golden as some stuff is, I ain’t getting any. Case closed. Sad but true.

The Bill Sienkwicz Condom Monster was also another classic commission on the boards!

I don’t remember that one, what was it ??

Just added an Amazing Spider-Man Annual 1 Cover. It’s HAMmer time 🐷.

Hope you like it.

We should start posting all the Frankenstein pieces that they have created so that we all know about them.

Anthony Snyder is not too far from there.

Uderzo told in several interviews that all non signed pages were stolen pages. But who knows? They have never been officially declared to the police as stolen, and Uderzo is known for having been very generous with his friends and family in the past. It is said that Asterix the Legionary pages had been given in full. Never easy to determine the truth in these cases. 

In the same category, a few days ago Hermann posted on his Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/HermannBD/) that a page in the upcoming Artcurial auction was stolen. A few years ago (don't know if it's still true) the widow of Jean Giraud / Moebius also tried to take possession of any art of his husband that was for sale in an auction, saying that this art was stolen if there was no invoice. 

Thank you very much for explaining.

Do I have to understand this comment that there were pages stolen ?

It is number 251, not 151.
