HI, all. I've consigned some more affordable artwork with Heritage this week. All auctions end Wednesday, Sept 21 and feature the main character(s) in costume or in their civilian identities. These are all solid pages, fun to own for yourself or to give as a gift. I've made a note of the pages that I'm running low on quantity, so if you've been waiting to pick one up, now is as good a time as any. Here's a brief summary of the pages, along with a direct link to each page at auction: Bagley Spiderman Life Story #5p20 - Peter's kids fight Morlun, while Peter jumps to his lab to get his Spidey Suit. Great action page!

Doesn't even need to be true high end art. During the previous HA auction, it was myself and one other bidder running up a piece from $31K to a hammer price of $55K. Take either the winner or underbidder out of the equation, and someone would have picked up a great page for ~ 75% less than final hammer.

I don't think that people have forgotten. Personally, I don't have to go into the office for at least another 6 months and I continue to save on vehicle expenses (gas, insurance, wear & tear, regularly scheduled Maintenace, etc), clothing & dry cleaning, laundry and so forth. I've been travelling only within North America, albeit very short, low-cost trips (HeroesCon and Terrificon). Only went to the movies once to see Top Gun 2 - Maverick, and I was able to negotiate a raise to offset inflation.

You are so confusing that it’s dizzying trying to understand your point. firstly, original art is a one of a kind item. Trying to use the sale of a Byrne Xmen page from 2002 with the sale of a different Byrne Xmen page that sold in 2022 for 14x the 2002 page is folly. but then to say that an Anderson Hawkman page, which didn’t even keep up with inflation during this same period will climb higher (assume you meant to say it will increase in price by x times faster than the Byrne Xmen) is ludicrous. the Byrne Xmen pages will always be in demand, with fierce competition driving prices ever higher. By comparison, not so much for Anderson Hawkman pages

Search for “from the collection of Murphy Anderson”…way too many results to list here

iIRC, you may have forgotten to factor in the plethora of Anderson artwork that flooded the market shortly after his death.

No need to setup at an exorbitantly overpirced show when they can setup for a fraction of the cost at the shows I’ve mentioned, in addition to the OA only shows held in CA and NJ.

Excellent post. Everyone, please follow KirbyCollector’s advice and refrain from bidding in November’s Heritage auction! I will personally thank you for it 🤣

Yes

I am saving a lot more money by not going to the show this year…the guest list becomes less interesting with each passing year, less comic and OA dealers due to the rising cost and hassle of getting a booth, along with ever-increasing ticket prices. conversely, I found HeroesCon and Terrificon to be much better options

Great start to the November auction with an Ingels HOF cover, Sandman #8 page, a Sandman #3 page, Batman 426 Death in the Family lots, Schomburg Green Hornet 21 cover, Romita Sr ASM 88 splash...can't wait to see even more great pieces added to this one!

Clearer, yes indeed.

Buddy, ya gotta stop calling it OCA…it’s just OA, OK?

I know that we don’t often agree, and it’s fine to have differing opinions. Sometimes, I’m swayed by a cohesive, well-thought out counterpoint and I change my mind. what I would like to know is who are the commenters suggesting we are headed towards critical mass? Are these anonymous keyboard jockeys all named Chicken Little? What evidence did they (or anyone) see in the last HA auction results to indicate anything whatsoever of a slowdown in the OA market? and lastly, but most importantly, why listen to them?

People who complained about prices on the lower quality pieces who have stopped collecting seem to have been replaced by folks who aren’t complaining because they’re too busy scooping up these lower tier pages like drunken sailors! how else does one explain the feeding frenzy at the shallow end of the pond?

Hiya, folks just a quick reminder that the auctions for these pieces end today. good luck to all bidders!
