Heritage May Art Auction Results Thread

Craig Crime cover does 63K!!!

STRONG price but an iconic cover.

 

Agreed.

Feldstein cover does 50K

 

[VintageComics]

Got outbid on the Everett Subby page. Thought it went a little strong.

 

[artdealer]

I was out on the Everett page at $3200.

I wonder if the cover's price may have been due to more of the fact that it was part of the "Maximum Carnage" storyline, which I knew about without reading comics when I was young because of the video game / outside media exposure...

 

Wasn't a part of Maximum Carnage. That was a 14-part (?) crossover that came later.

 

This cover was part 3 of the first (3-part) story that introduced Carnage, so it's his third appearance, after 361 and 362.

 

Ah, I see. I saw Carnage and was thrown for a minute there. Good thing I didn't decide to bid on it then hah.

Wow. No live bidding on KJ page

 

 

Yeah 19k before she even brought up the lot. I had thought it was around 20k when I saw it in the catalog for the first time. One of the instances where all the bidding happened before the gavel, .

You were the delayed bid that started it all up again.

 

[artdealer]

It's always my fault.

 

[LastRaven]

Ah... I missed the Graham Ingels complete story... Went for a low price too. I didn't even see it on there when I was tracking my lots. Oh well....

FF #55 page sells for $155,350. Applause in the room to commemorate the top of the market.

[spider9698]

Oh, it thought it was polite applause to mark the end of my collecting days....

Well... at least I can still get Transformers art at a reasonable price... That is until I hit the lottery so I can buy a single iconic Kirby page .

The slow relentlessness of your overwhelming optimism is winning me over.

Except for one lot, this auction has been a spectator sport for me. I was surprised by the Colan TOS #81 first page splash going for $7170 (with BP).

[Lee B.]

Brave and the Bold #34 cover went for about $90K. How does that compare with the price it was shopped-around at in recent years?

[drewincanada]

I liked the auctioneer referring to "Jack Kirby and Joe Sin-no".

[artdealer]

The B & B #34 cover sold for less then what I was selling it for 2 years ago.

It was shopped for $150K and then for $100K if I recall correctly

[artdealer]

When I was selling it at San Diego 2 years ago, the price was $130,000.

 

[markseifert]

Are there any public Silver Age Marvel art sales that surpass the FF #55 page result? Not too much springs to mind, covers or interiors.
