Who's the artist..?

[Aweandlorder]

This guy seems to have the entire (or close to the entire) run of Impel's 1991 GI Joe trade cards in original art form.. Any idea who's the artist here?

Well I assume it was someone big, being that it closed at 1700+

Looks like multiple artists. The first hit I got it is MD Bright who did "approximately one-third of Impel's 1991 G.I. Joe trading card set" (wikipedia!)

Someone got a massive steal on that auction.

I'm not sure it was a steal really-single pages they would probably have sold for $80-$100

But they're not single pages. It's trading card art.

I've seen stuff like this on ebay before it doesnt seem to command much money

Kav, you really don't know what you're talking about.

 

You have not seen Impel GI Joe trading card art or other similar 90s trading card OA sell on ebay (or anywhere else) for little money.

I've seen trading card art go for about 80-100 but if you dont want to believe it thats ok

Find me one example.

I mean the last time I was looking at this stuff was like a year ago and I was surprised there wasn't much interest.

There was interest a year ago. Lots of it, and it's easy to find and track with completed sales. Or you could continue to spread misinformation because that's even easier.

Go to any of the obvious auction houses and search for "trading card original art".

[Aweandlorder]

But in all seriousness, I have no knowledge in this field, but assumed that 1700.00 for a random auction on eBay by a joe schmoe seller who auctioned them and admittedly had no clue about them would be a surprising big close.. Wouldnt you?

Well I found this-but its a silver age card by a noted silver age artist-and it only sold for just over $200 so I stand by my statement

I went to Heritage-nothing

So I repeat-give me one example
