I just sent art with a purchase value of $10K, which is a lot to me, to a restorer. I sent it USPS Priority Registered, i.e., under lock and key, to the restorers PO Box. I put an AirTag in the box and watched it travel. Because of the lock and key requirement, it's slow and ground, but it got there. It was kinda fun to watch its journey from Houston up I45 to DFW, east on I20, down to Tampa, up to Orlando, down to Tampa, back to Orlando, and finally to the restorer. Two weeks. Most of that time it was in a PO waiting for the next step. No clue why it migrated from Tampa to Orlando to Tampa to Orlando though.
Genius to use the Air Tag - Alex - you have great taste in art and are a genius

That's actually just what dealers tell you so that you'll pay their prices.
Sadly, I think that is right! There is some mythical “other guy” that I’ve never met, has no CAF, and never buys anything.

Two stories -
1) early in my collecting, I win a Gil Kane Warlock page - super happy. Another collector tells me it is special page blah/blah so I sell it to him for what I just paid. I feel good. Two weeks later, he has it for sale for substantially more. I never dealt with him again.
2) Another fellow insists I add an interior page by artist X to get a splash I want by that artist. I love my interior page but the splash is so special. He tells me he wants to keep an example of this artist in his collection. I do the deal. He flips it. I’m so bummed as I would have paid much more to have kept the page in the first place or to buy it back. Alas.

I was talking to someone at the show recently in NJ, and he said Golden Age art (with some exceptions) is down. Non-choice/low quality Silver Age stuff doesn’t seem to move too well, so it may (or has) begun to head down.
Yes - GA art (with some exceptions) is down - I agree. Generally, not an area anyone really cares about....except me and a few others

Yes indeed! Antwerps/ Belgium isn't the worst place for comics and original art. We have the tradition of the Franco-Belge but also a lot of young artists. There are great comic shops. e.g. Mekanik https://www.instagram.com/p/CM1-9_EHKhk/
Antwerps has some excellent museums... e.g. the https://www.museummayervandenbergh.be/en where you can see Mad Meg.I'm in Amsterdam much of the time...

I'm always buying GA art but getting a bit harder to find...alas...

I had the Nova #10 cover for several years but sold it to a friend.

I have an incredible drawing of The Atom by Brian you should publish - it is too good not to be seen. You may recall seeing it by the water faucet, once.
