To the fellow Texas collectors at last week's art gathering,
Tremendous fun and many thanks to Bedrock Richard for hosting.
FWIW, I TOLD YOU SO! That Byrne X-Men 114 page barely passed the $15K mark with the vig. While there has already been much discussion on the Heritage thread with the soft pricing realized on this page and several other items in the HA Signature Original Comic Art, I could not see this 114 page going for the premium pricing.
For all others, we had a friendly debate on 12 November during the art gathering where several collectors disagreed with my assessment that this page would hammer in the $16K to $18K range. Many thought that this page would pass the $20K level with the vig. I held my position, and now (to use a Marvel phrase from my childhood)....vindication is mine!
Ciao!
