    WINDSOR-SMITH STUDIO ORIGINAL ART SALE AGREEMENT

    This standard Transfer and Sale Agreement must be completed by the purchaser
    of any original Work of Art to which the Artist retains the rights stated herein,
    including all rights of reproduction."

    I've purchased art directly from BWS starting around 2000 and have never been presented with the TAR. He may have done it at one time but it has never come up. I'd sign with no issue as I have stated on the boards before, but it was never presented

  2. well, it seems 23 67 people have clicked from here to there, so thank you!

    there is a small fee included in the shipping/handling charges, if any boardies win lots and PM me here after auction closes or when they are invoiced I will waive that fee. for what it is worth, I do one fee for up to 3 lots and another for 4+ lots while the auction houses I reviewed for reference charge $10 or so for each and every lot. I am keeping the fees low to encourage bidding and hope people take note. the BP is 18%, also low relative to the other auctions on live auctioneers

    shameless plug over

  3. auction is picking up steam, please check it out!

    I would love to get some (more) boardie consignments, so if you think you have a few books that would do well on live auctioneers consider sending them my way...next auction will be early/mid May. Maybe just 30 bronze books in nice shape, 25 magazines, I don't require megavalue to consign and have great rates, PM for details. Please. If you have 50 longboxes in storage, why not move one or three? People are still buying, I know this as someone bid on a lot of 75 Justice League Europe comics!!!

    I saw him at NYCC in 2008 and man, he looked great. We all age, of course - but you've lived a good life if you're in your 70's with a full head of hair, wearing a suit at a comic convention and sporting a b*tchln' tan.

    he is the coolest man in any room he enters! And he still has his swagger. I saw him last year, bought 6 of the calendar prints but he now asks $50 a sig so I passed on having them signed.

    Jim Shooter's a huge man. If he falls on Steranko neither may be getting up on their own. I really like Shooter too. 

    I hope OP gets his comic with a great head sketch as well.

    Sounds like someone needs to contact Steranko to slap some sense into Shooter.

     

    he would do it, but I don't think he could reach

    Shooter could likely pick up Steranko by the head with one hand!

    in this case the outsized talent and outsized charisma comes in a tiny package

     

  6. wow, time flies! I am set with 100 lots and decided to likely stop there for this first auction. I am now re-taking photos of the lots or adding photos of more valuable issues in a lot, etc. I am targeting Feb 18 but may go a little earlier if I am set sooner than expected. Yeah, right.

    Here is a Moon Knight lot, 50 comics total IIRC. Boy have some of those MK issues increased in value!!!

  7. saw recently that Gunn was saying nice things about Tom King...has anyone asked directly about that New Gods project with King and Ava DuVernay? I think 4th World would work best if it comes first or at least somewhat concurrently with other new projects...weave in some 4th World characters in the larger DCU.

    anyway, just a thought
