“The one from Boston”. That kills me!

I sold it for $250 back in the day!

You’re selling animation drawings, not cels.

I remember Michael Golden ripping up an entire, unpublished, pencils to an issue of Mister Miracle. This was late 70s.

I understand. I was using the DD page as an example. But, you say there are a lot of collectors who don’t check auction and blindly buy that $45,000 page without doing some sort of research. I simply don’t believe that.

Is it possible that there are collectors who will spend $45,000 on an early Wood Daredevil page without doing their due diligence? They wake up in the morning, see an art update, see the DD page, and just drop $45,000 and not check, or ask a fellow collector? I think it’s rare, if ever, that it happens.

You wish!

I’m still here! The original Godfather of art dealers!

Sorry, can’t all of this now. I have to go out and beat my dead horse.

Yes.

Your assumption about one of the 2 artists is wrong.

No. I believe she kept them

Except that Lynn Varley did the airbrushing.

Depends who your “sources” are.

Very happy to see Roger’s family getting the bulk of the winnings from this auction.

Oohhhhhh…. The blind leading the blind!

That’s the perceived notion. Being a professional does not allow for rebuttal. At least this is what I was told.

I can assure you Europeans are NOT paying double. They want a discount as much as buyers in the US do, despite what other dealers might make you think.

In defense of Jason (not that he needs my help), Jason was not Art’s rep 11 years ago. Jason shouldn’t have had to ask Arthur about a commission that Arthur accepted when Jason wasn’t his rep. It’s to Jason’s credit that he did ask Arthur. My feeling is Jason didn’t have to do that. To this day, I still get requests from people who have not received commissions from Bill Sienkiewicz. I don’t answer them anymore. I haven’t repped Bill in over 15 years. When I repped Bill and received complaints, I would forward them to Bill. But that’s all I would do. Since I did not handle commissions, I didn’t feel it was my responsibility to deal with overdue commissions.
