    Bought a piece last week from them. Hasn't shipped out yet but I'll keep you posted when I get it.

    Thank you! The timing was perfect and I live in a smaller tourist town so prices weren’t insane yet. My neighbor, who has a similar layout to mine, just sold theirs for 140k more than what I paid. If I were in the market today it would have been practically impossible without selling off some of the best pieces in my collection.

    Currently, it's about 60% of my net worth. My collectibles were as high as 80% two years ago when I was still collecting books. I liquidated some when I purchased a house. I've been throwing most of my income into art and books since I started collecting almost a decade ago. I'm 30 btw.

    I had a similar issue but as the seller. A few years back I sold a book registered mail through my local PO. It took two weeks to go from Georgia to Texas and then disappeared. After a week with no updates, I opened a claim. After four more weeks with nothing updating, the buyer drove three hours to the last place it was scanned. Turned out the package was sitting there but was flagged because it wasn't initially marked correctly at my PO. Instead of marking it in their back-end intranet system as being held, that location just put it to the side. If the buyer never drove to that location it probably wouldn't have been "found". This was the last time I used registered mail.

    It does. I ended up with a Bone #1 from the Kickstarter because someone backed out.
  6. Captain ShipWreck
    Ah. Sorry about that. Maybe we just talked about what we were going for that night. The piece went high, something like $700. I missed out on the two pieces I was after too.

    I might be remembering this wrong but didn't you win the charity piece at Heroescon this year as well?
  8. Captain ShipWreck
    Heroes Con 1994 program back cover/ 2023 front cover. Jeff sent a drawing in a reply letter saying he would do the show and they could use this image for the program. I've spoken to the owner about it once a while ago and I believe it was a pencil sketch he had inked by a few different artists. The other is a cover from the Bone run. It was gifted years ago when Bone was still coming out.
  9. Captain ShipWreck
    out of curiosity, is this piece one of the two pieces Jeff gave as gifts to convention organizers?
  10. Captain ShipWreck
    Picked these up from the framers today. A vintage Hellboy pinup by Mike Mignola and an inked Bone piece by Jeff Smith.
  11. Captain ShipWreck
    Most recent pick-up and probably my favorite piece in the PC right now. Hellboy & The Angel of Death.
  12. Captain ShipWreck
    I picked this up a couple of years ago. This was Mike’s second attempt at a promo image (team drawing being the first) and drawn right after the Dimepress cover.

    Thank you! I hope you got to see it when we had all the slabs. It was a cool couple years when are walls were just major keys. Thank you but it's back up for sale. The previous buyer bought it for his son as a gift, but it was the wrong SOTI book he was needing.

    Just looked and it's clearly the same book. I did an art deal a couple months ago and this book was part of the deal since he didn't have all cash. I'm guessing the guy bought it off Snyder at some point and it just never got removed. I rarely use this but if you need a reference from me I've been the manager of Mountain Man Comics since 2014 and our feedback is very solid.

    Sorry for the delay, was out shopping. Hope this helps.

    Thank you for letting me know. I wasn't aware of that.
