Who is going to proudly hang a $1M piece of bondage art on their wall?

Extra points for it prominently featuring the Klan.

Ehh, you hang it in the basement man cave

I doubt that’s a consideration for many.

It was for me!

$90k after juice and seven Fair Warnings.   Wow 

Very iconic, price is higher than I would have predicted but not a shocker

I joked to my wife that I could use one of the kids college funds for the Kirby art I wanted. It went for $40k more than what’s in the account.

I still remember holding 3 Tom Brady Contenders autograph rookies I pulled from packs and thinking “what crappy luck I have”….who knew…

Did you trade all three for a Drew Bledsoe rookie?

Does anyone know why these pitch pieces signed by Tony Sgroi are also attributed to Alex Toth?

Geez, as much as I love Garcia Lopez OA, prices are starting to get serious now!

6 figures each, 7 if they grade a 10

A lot of the DC style-guide images were heavily merchandised.    Strong prices for sure - but lots of nostalgia there…

I had a lunchbox with that Batman/Joker image

Well considering one was 10/100 the numbered rare parallel and all three had good corners and would grade 9 and potentially a ten on the parallel…2.5 million maybe?

Nope sold them because I worked at a card shop in Ann Arbor back in 2000-2001. He sold well, I had a lot of his cards when I was a dealer in the area for cards.

 

I had one that got severely damaged and I think I still have back at my dads house, but I’ve never had the urge to go back and look and prove/disprove the theory…maybe some day.

Back to the auction, lot of good sales today and a few deals. I really loved that Blackhawk but I just couldn’t pull the trigger over 5k. Ended up with one buy and a few misses.
