    Posted · Edited by lobrac

    Both of these Kirby pieces (Amazing Adventures #2 splash and FF Annual 2 Super Skrull pin-up) sold in the HA November 2019 Signature for $33,600 and $15,600 respectively.

     
     
    Oh, hello there again! Now they are both in the HA March 2020 Signature. "Flip of the Day"?  OR... "Shill of the Day"?

    Your old link does not work. I see you're selling it now on Romitaman. That didn't take long. Did you ever even own the Hawkman page? Typical #clickbate post in this thread, as usual.

    Notice how the Donnellys changed the description of this item they purchased from HA to make it sound like Kirby actually touched the piece and drew layouts, which were then finished by Purcell. Here is the original listing from HA:

    And here is the Donnelly piece with their altered and deceptive description. #lame.

    Ok this floored me. The first image   is from the C-Link auction that just went down: This is from the C-Link auction description: Note: The original paste-ups were missing and the word balloons are replacement stats.  

    SOLD $4,000 December 2019
     

    RAD32A7520191030_142224.jpg

    The second image describes the last date of sale (August 2017) at Heritage with the description:Sal Buscema and Mike Esposito Spectacular Spider-Man #5 Story Page 16 Original Art (Marvel, 1977). The board is very toned, and almost all of the paste-up text is missing, leaving discolored glue residue in their wake. Only the first balloon on the page is still there. Overall in Good condition.

    Sold $717    August 2017      

    2 years pass, bust out the Crest toothpaste to make the board (page) minty fresh white. Xerox some word balloons and affix to board. Presto $717 investment + arts and crafts = $4,000 sale. The work is very well done. I can think of a couple of talented conservationists that may have touched this.Kudos to HA in the first auction describing the page as very toned. I imagine you could describe the condition of your boxers after a trip to Casa Bonita all you can eat buffet as very toned also.

    Original Comic Art:Panel Pages, Sal Buscema and Mike Esposito Spectacular Spider-Man #5 Story Page 16 Original Art (Marvel, 1977)....

    Now it’s for sale for $5K!

    Sold this past Tuesday on Comiclink for $577 and now Erik Essington is pondering it. I'm pondering what exactly is going on in that bottom panel. Actually, I'm trying to not ponder it.
