They sold that red box set with an original drawing by Jeff. He did 50 of them that were fully inked and then watercolored by Steve Hamaker. All had the same basic setup of the cover to #11 with green grass, a blue sky, and Fone reading from a book. Sounds boring but they were pretty well done.

Glad you got one of these, dude! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocGo Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Needed to post at least once in this thread in honor of the 30th anniversary of Bone #1’s first printing It took me a few years to finally jump on the bandwagon but have loved it ever since HighVoltage, Legion HQ and videoloop 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gradejunky Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I just recently got the 30th anniversary One Volume slipcased edition. I'm way late to the party. I started reading it and have enjoyed it thus far. videoloop, Legion HQ and DocGo 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattTheDuck Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 Picked these up at a yard sale last weekend. I know literally nothing about this name, so got pretty excited about the #1 for a second before looking at the indicia Very nice presenting copies, despite being stored in a long box w/o bags or boards. videoloop and DocGo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
J Bill Posted July 13, 2021 Share Posted July 13, 2021 I started reading Bone immediately after Don Thompson gave it a glowing review in CBG in 1992. I remember a panel of the red dragon next to the article review and thinking how much it looked like Ty Templeton's work at the time. Don wrote that you could buy the first 3 issues directly from Cartoon Books and Jeff Smith would autograph the first issue so I jumped right on that. Looks like I got the 2nd printings of #1-3 from them, which I didn't realize until later. Great series. Wish I had those in 1st print!

I’ve seen Don’s copy of #1 and it was a signed first print. I’m sure those were long gone by 1992. Second printings aren’t bad so I hope you still have it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe it’s the “20th Anniversary” printing that’s still being sold. It’s included in the Kickstarter package that I bought so I’ll post something once it’s delivered.

followtheleader Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 This is the item I'm curious about. Really just curious about going rate. https://www.ebay.com/itm/123733044985?hash=item1ccf106ef9:g:b6gAAOSw6jJcTj7a Patrick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocGo Posted July 15, 2021 Author Share Posted July 15, 2021 Yeah, that was the one I was referring to. They don’t come up for sale often but one sold a couple months ago for $199 with some minor damage to the box. They retailed for $350. The mini Bone #1 is what I’m most interested in. Wonder what it’s condition will be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mini #1 is AWESOME. It's printed on really nice heavy stock, and the loose one I have is in great condition..I imagine the ones in the red box will be mint. I've got two more coming by way of the kickstarter (I have a problem..lol) On 7/14/2021 at 8:18 PM, followtheleader said: This is the item I'm curious about.

That will probably start to creep up now that they're no longer available direct from CB. DocGo 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jdandns Posted July 25, 2021 Share Posted July 25, 2021 I've got a bunch of wall posters, mostly from the 90's, from a comic store whose stock I bought out about 10 years ago. There are some Bone retailer incentive posters in there, at least a few different designs. Is anyone familliar with these? I'll try and get some pictures of them and add them to the thread so the enthusiasts can have a look. Legion HQ and HighVoltage 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks pretty good. I’d say press-able to 8.0/8.5 with a cursory look. You’ll take a hit on the pages though which seems to be happening to a lot of the #1s (definitely not printed with the best quality paper). Congrats!
