Keeping it moving along. Here's another piece I am offering up for sale. The MASTER, Jack Kirby, on his best title, Fantastic Four.

 

Fantastic Four 20, page 28 (final page of the story): This page features the Molecule Man being absorbed into a ball off flame while the Watcher and the FF look on. Great page features images of the entire Fantastic Four. A rare opportunity to own an early page of Kirby Fantastic Four art! And as a bonus, this one is signed by Jack Kirby!!

Price: $3,000

I don't want to say until I have it in hand, but I will definitely share when I get it. I may also be working on a piece up for sale in the Heritage Auctions today.

I figured that's why you didn't say what it was already. I'd play it close to the vest until it was in hand too!

I learned a valuable lesson years ago. I was getting a piece and had sent money to the seller. Someone found out about it, contacted him, and offered a higher amount. He reneged on my sale and sold it to the other person. Needless to say, it was incredibly disappointing. The piece has not come up for sale since (that was 14 years ago), so it's not like I would have another shot at it. That's the thing with Original Art. It is unique. Once a page is sold, it is sold, and if it's to a collector, you may not have another chance to buy it for 20 years. Or more.

 

So now I don't disclose what I want to buy until I have it in hand.

They were covered in plaster/clay to fool Molecule Man.

I tried to float the "sack lunch" plan, but it was a non-starter. Women. Sometimes they just don't understand.
