What are the dimensions of that page? and the heads on the page?

Thanks Felix. I took a step back and read again what we've been writing to each other. I see you are only trying to share an objective viewpoint of how these pieces have been valued by collectors as a whole. And I don't disagree. Sorry if I took it too personally:) Thanks for your feedback P

Actually, please disregard my points above. Regardless of what the general collecting consensus may be of corner box art, its what I like and I have my own reasons for appreciating it. The less people that like them and don't have any interest in them, the better for me:) P

Yes agreed, I don't think that any other corner box art were used as a gauge at all for the Byrne X-Men piece. That is not what I was suggesting. I am asking a legitimate question. In terms of comps, what is the most comparable art type to corner box art? Is it a cover? No, but it appears on covers multiple issues in the same title. What other art type does that? Is it a pinup? The work of art itself could be a pinup then later used for the corner box. But the usage of it is not for interiors. Is it a splash? A page? A sketch? Which is the best type of imperfect comp? Also,does the fact that corner art images are some of the most viewed and most recognizable images for any title or any era factor into the desirability (or not) of these pieces?

Thanks for the feedback. I see where you are coming from. I think it is acceptable for any collector to want to gauge the value of their art pieces. When collectors or dealers estimate the value of their pieces, what criteria do they go by? Artist, title, art type (covers, pages, etc), historic relevance, etc. Covers, splashes, pages, etc are more common than corner box art. An artist can do multiple covers for a title. They will most likely do multiple splashes and many pages for a title. But they may only do one corner box piece. So should corner box art only be compared to corner box art by the same artist? and in the same era? and for the same title? What if the artist doesn't produce any other corner box art for the same title in the same era? Then what could an owner of a corner box piece use to appropriately gauge the value of his art?

I have two corner box art pieces that are both larger than this piece and are also somewhat recognizable. One is 7.5"x11" and the other is 11"x17". From what I've ssen with corner art, the size varies but you can find some on even larger art board than 11"x17" http://www.comicartfans.com/galleryroom.asp?gsub=178574 I agree with you Jeff. I also feel that board/image size is second to the amount of detailing and quality of the actual artwork. Side note: If Anthony's sells over $40k, I wonder what the value of my pieces would be?

Happy to acquire this Gulacy/Milgrom Master of Kung Fu title splash:) Master of Kung Fu 19

Thanks! I think it was a cool choice for Marvel to keep Zeck as the artist for the Cap cast of characters for continuity.

Thanks Pete!
