Swann Auctions Sept 29 - 2 Kirby Cap pages

[micmack]

Saw these two pages buried in an illustration auction in NYC on the 29th....

 

 

Kirby Cap page A

 

Kirby Cap Page B

 

Not sure if this was mentioned before. Didn't see anything in the search so sorry if this was covered before.

 

Just thought people her would like to know....

The starting bids are INSANE. Not just for the Kirby pages, but for many of their lots.

I saw those the other day. I follow a couple of other categories at Swann (books prints and photography,) but checked out this sale to see if there was any crossover. Indeed there was! I was surprised to see these show up.

He's got to pay for his suits, somehow

Please Rob tell me that's a joke. Looks like something Carbo would rock

Nicholas Lowry from Swann. He's known for his suits. That one is in the middle of the spectrum in terms of ridiculousness.

There's a place near Midtown Comics on 41st Street that sells suits like that. 2 for $99...

Hey, I know this guy. I see him on Antique Roadshow a lot. I think he was also the person that did the appraisals for some Kirby OA that his granddaughter bought in on one of the episodes.

 

Found it, and it was someone else that did the appraisals.

[rob_react]

Yeah, he's a roadshow regular as well as running Swann.

I think its a reasonable price on the Charles Adams lots. There are a couple great ones there.

Yep, those are great starting prices

Does anyone know how much the Kirby pages went for?

[artdealer]

The half splash sold for $4680 with the BP, the other page passed.
