Rick2you2 Posted April 7, 2023 Share Posted April 7, 2023 Every so often, I will spot a piece on CAT which I like, is inexpensive, but out of my wheelhouse. I suspect others have had similar experiences. So, I thought it might be a nice idea to alert other boardies in case they might be interested. I would suggest the following rules and limitations: 1. Pieces should generally be less than $1,000, and definitely less than $2,000. Over that amount, and it’s not helping a lot of the boardies who might appreciate it the most. 2. No more than one page per post, preferably no more than one post per day. You can argue that a heck of a lot of pieces are good art/good deals, but too much bloat doesn’t focus attention on real bargains. 3. Try to explain why you think it’s a good deal. For example, I like a lot of Chaykin’s work, particularly his older pages when he would do everything himself. He could be very creative at borders, turning otherwise uninteresting pages into nice work, and his technical skills are very high. As to the subject matter, well…not usually involving favorite characters, so they often have a low price point. 4. No self-promotion. Don’t post your own pieces here that are for sale. That’s for Marketplace. So, if you’re interested, give it a shot. grapeape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

babsrocks31 Posted April 8, 2023 Share Posted April 8, 2023 A) Thank you. Great idea. B) I've been looking for a fun Bagley page with Mary Jane for several years now. Just missed one on eBay for about $300 a few years ago. grapeape 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Rick2you2 Posted April 12, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted April 12, 2023 Ok, ok, but not much posted lately strikes me as a really good buy. Since something should be posted, the following dps is by Mike Perkins for $600. I really like that artwork style, which is rarely seen anymore (if ever), and the grand scale of the piece is impressive. I think Perkins is a bit heavy on the inks, and you can get single pages for about $2-300, with better Swamp Thing images, but all in all, I still like it.

Mycroft Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 I have a good buys list .. but I mostly keep it to myself ... But, what about a cover by a big 2 published artist, at 150 $ ? https://www.splashpageart.com/GalleryPiece.asp?Piece=25760&ArtistId=253 Or that one at 250 $ for the western fans : https://cadencecomicart.com/art.php?page=17868 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
