I hope I'm not out of line for asking here. I was a regular on these boards for a few years, but had to sell off most of the collection and just dropped off for a while. Recently, I was contacted by a few people about a book I had in for sale thread from a couple years back. I thought it was gone, but it turns out it was one of only two slabs I still have that don't have original art on the covers. I saw a vf/nm non slabbed copy recently went for $400 on these boards. Any idea what this goes for nowadays? (It does seem likely to do better than the $180 I had offered it at.)

Returning to boards after being off for a while. Recent trip to SDCC seemed like as good of an excuse as any to come back. Felt good about the art we picked up. As a collector in the late '70s early '80s, it was hard not to be impressed with Bill Sienkiewicz. Finally broke down and got a commission. I was thrilled with the finished piece, which as also larger than ordered. A huge bonus. I also decided that I shouldn't wait any longer on picking up an William Stout piece. His recent book honoring the special effects master on King Kong made it an easy call. My first purchase was from Lee Khose, an artist for Lucasfilm. I really liked this piece honoring Lucas and the founder of the 501st Legion charity. This is a prelim piece for a painted card. Lastly, sticking with my old playing-card theme, this Mitchell Breitweiser piece was tough to pass up.
