Hello OA collectors,
First time poster, long time lurker ....
Relatively new to collecting OA, so apologies if this topic is buried in the forum somewhere but wondering if anyone has had good results with Bill Cole Enterprise's archival frames that use the 4-mil mylar overlay? Understandably professionally frames with archival glass is preferred, but wonder about experiences with BCE's lower-cost alternative -- pro/cons?
Thanks
Heritage April Auction
in Original Comic Art
Posted
Hey all,
Guilty. I won this one. I had about 7 items that I was active on during Thurs thru Sunday and got blown out of the water on all by a good amount. Some interior pages that went for 5k in the Nov HA signature were re-posted, going for more than 2.5x this auction -- just five months later. Other pages that I had pegged for 10 to 15k (even in the new hyper-OA pricing world) were hitting high-20k.
So by the time that Nexus page rolled around near the end of the auction, I got out over my skis. Rude sold these off his site for about $2k-3.5k years ago, so when it started at 2k, I thought maybe 5k or 6k max, but no ... guess I gotta chalk it up to blind grief/fury bidding on my part on those last couple of clicks. Didn't want to strike out completely. That said, I really love this page and glad I got it after the buyer's remorse quickly faded. One of the better Nexus pages I've seen.
BTW Hekla: that page wasn't just a web-comic, rather Rude published an oversized comic newspaper (like Wed comics) as part of his original Kickstarter, later collecting in a softcover trade and oversized hardcover. I'd recommend picking up the newsprint if you've never seen it -- cool project.
