This splash here from wolverine 1 sold within the last year for 7k. I thought about it for a bit but ultimately passed because Buscema’s Wolverine just doesn’t do it for me.

Maybe everyone read the description and saw that the two spider-man images are full on stats. 

Yikes - I didn’t read that. Those are the only parts that had any value. I wouldn’t spend 100k on just a big Doc Oc face!

Closing the sale done now. ASM page is sold and the other 2 Kirby’s are available if you still want to contact me.

Thanks!!

RickyB

The ASM page is now on hold.

thanks for everyone’s interest in my sales. As mentioned I am open to offers and trades and open to time payments!

thx for looking  

Hey all,

I had some stuff that was on sale at SDCC and I am now offering it here and on CAF at a discount for a limited time.

I am open to offers and trades.

Here is a link to my for sale gallery:

Why do you say "now"?  Was it less at a previous show?

My apologies for the lack of clarity. The Thor cover was another stolen piece on Moys website. It’s priced at 10k on the website but since he got it back it’s 55k now ?

Any chance 'we' can get price checks on 2 pages from Moy's rack of 'previously stolen' original art ??...

 

I asked about the Thor cover and it’s 55k now

I know the Thor poster didn't sell too quickly, as it was still available at the 2005 San Diego Comic Con. There was a difference, though; the price had jumped to 40K. In 2005, still too expensive.

What are those worth now? 100k+ I would imagine.

I've seen that piece in person- very, very nice. Great Stone inks on that one.

 

Hey Robert,

Did the piece look larger than 2up? Like much bigger? The scan really sucks!

There are a few Marvel SA covers with larger image areas (15.5" x 22")..for example, I just recall how extra-big the TOS #84 cover looked in hand.  
TOS #84 (1966)

Early JIM panel pages typically have twice-up image areas of 18-19" in length, but there is 3-4 inches of margin (top and bottom) so conceivably Kirby could have utilized more of the board.  Perhaps the art extends beyond the guidelines and counted in the 22.75" length.  Or maybe the seller is math-challenged as the listing does state:

"We sold two early J.I.M pages by Kirby, in auction, collectively for $56K, consider this a bargain!"  Um... I think $56k / 2 = $28k, well below the $35k asking price LOL!  Still, an excellent Kirby page with Thor in all panels. 

  

Thanks Dino. The person being math challenged did cross my mind. What really confused me was the width of the page. 16 inches? Twice up pages are only 12.5 inches wide. That's another 4 inches going wide. The cover example might be the closest example.

Hey all,

I was curious about this piece. It says it measures 16 x 22.75.. is that a typo?. Or is this some kind of massive board that was worked on for this story?

Anyone who can explain/shed some light that would be great!

Thx

Hey all,

Going to close this down. Got enough in the works where at least one piece will be sold. 

Thanks to all who contacted me!

Hi all!

Putting up a few pieces for sale. Only looking to sell 1-2 pieces so I can hopefully complete another transaction.

Found...Thank you!

Did you buy it? I couldn't see that cover any where on his site

I have always been a fan of the Peanut strips when it came to reading them but not when it came to collecting them. There are so many of them and they are not cheap at all. But this piece - absloute perfection the characters and content are perfect!

congrats!

On a good day in an auction environment, I'd say 8k to 12k, on an off day, maybe $6k to 8k.  If you needed cash within an hour, you'd easily get $3k - 5k from a dealer or collector as a straight buy

You could get that 3-5K as an advance from an auction house

I'd say 7-10k at auction with an upside... it's ALL Perez too! Nice piece..

This... burned into my brain since my child hood...

Those don't look like "Single figure/limited background" pieces. 

Ahh missed that part totally. Maybe the new price is adjusted for inflation ? 

I thought the pricing was absolutely absurd until I saw this (and there are a few others) on Heritage. Is this the type of quality you would get?
