great stuff!

pretty dern cool

there were 3 of us bidding over 170K for it...I , unfortunately, couldn't bid the 204 , to try to win it... sigh

I liked it to 30K...just couldn't bid any higher, cuz luckily I already have 2 great byrne pages from that issue...but if I didn't, I would have gone higher

I focus on one character...about 15 years ago I randomly bought a piece, just to have an example...I wasn't really interested in collecting oa...over the next 10 years I picked up an example here and there, just to have...no rhyme or reason, just occasionally would buy a piece... then a hurricane financially forced me to sell my comic collection in 2018/19...but as a 50 year "comic collector", it was part of my nature to want to collect...but no way I was going to try to re piece back a comic collection...so covid hit in 2020 and I started seriously focused on buying OA (new venture)...I bought everything I could...any piece offered to me with my favorite character, I bought it... didn't really consider cost, or content...I just figured "its one of kind, don't pass"...then, after a couple of years, last year I looked at many of the pieces I had purchased and it dawned on me, "why" ...the content wasn't great on some...the art wasnt great on some....the price certainlly wasn't great on some....so I changed directions and now Im "focused" on pieces that I find to be more substantial or even "epic" in some nature... collecting is a progression...you will find your path as we all seem to

Thanks...I googled and found nothing...since issue 55 panel pages are known out there, figured the cover might be too...cool to see

its owned by a well known collector

never seen it?...earliest surfer cover I know is beschara and ff 72...fishler has 74, and clink auctioned 77 about 10 years ago...Ive not seen 75....never seen SS 2 or 3 cover...1,4 up seem to have been out there

its been touring with the marvel exhibit for some years now...I saw it in seattle 2018

the owner of SS 4 cover is known to many...I believe all SS from 68 on, exists and is out there...just wonder about ff 48-50...seems maybe 49 & 50 exist, but never seen a page from them offered or existing?

hello all... was just sitting in my massage chair, wondering about life, and I got to thinking...what is the first or earliest known example of Silver Surfer art...I know pages from issue 55 of FF exist...but are there any earlier known? figured this would be the place to ask

we will be there set up
