about 7 years ago I was looking through portfolios at a NJ show and Tex came up and said something about looking for anything he did. I had seen a page earlier and pulled the portfolio so he could see it. It was a page from Wolverine and he laughed at the price ($450) but I recall telling him that his stuff was moving up in value

 

There was a time when I would see stuff like this and figure "this dealer must know his market better than I do, after all it is his business" but I am not so sure lately.

"let's throw together a show online to sell art" "sure, at worst nothing sells and all we do is waste some time and have some fun, free marketing"...then "maybe this has a down side I had not foreseen"

Yes M L but you have to consider parts and labor. Then Los Bros have to pay a lot for storage for all the overpriced art that never sells.
