Do you display your other pieces in another room and bring these out to showcase them? I'm guessing you have a huge collection of OA, do you have it filed or on display?

I really like how they look with the matting around them. That’s a nice, consistent way to display. Do you have them shrink-wrapped or did you find a bag large enough to accommodate the page, matting and foam core? Twanj 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a reason for this or do I need to keep looking for the ones with flaps (like comic mylars). I was wondering if they don’t have flaps to let the acid in the paper vent out if being stored long-term? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Cello85 Posted November 18, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted November 18, 2022 Got my Batman/Superman pages framed up. This was my first original art purchase and a lot of research went into this. Cover is a Danny Miki sketch with a Jim Lee and Ben Affleck sig. Framed with museum glass.

Andahaion Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Picked up two pieces by Liam Sharp from Albert's booth at Baltimore Comic Con a few weeks ago. Really fun time at the con this year. I need to go to more shows as I tend to run into things that are not online (or maybe I'm not as obsessively checking as some of you). To that point, Albert had a whole portfolio of new art that Liam recently gave to him, none of it even priced yet. I saw this splash and pretty much knew this was the example for me. Love the loose rendering, really different from the other piece I picked up which is a tightly rendered WW pinup. It's huge, 21" x 16.5". This is from GL Season 2, #7, page 22. Written by Grant Morrison. grapeape, Twanj, Mighty Hal and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
