Hake's Auction Offers Fantastic Comic-Related Items In Current Auction!

[Hake's]

The newest Hake's American & Collectibles Auction, closing December 13-15, once again has some great offerings in the CGC arena. Covering a wide expanse of genres, these books have come from pedigrees such as: Pennsylvania, Vancouver, San Francisco, Big Apple, Rockford, Mile High, Larson, Nova Scotia, Spokane, Denver, Crowley, Carson City, Twilight, and White Mountain.

 

Just a sampling of some of the great books in this auction include: a fantastic example of Fantastic Four #48 in 9.8 condition, featuring the first appearances of the Silver Surfer and Galactus; a shining copy of Green Lantern #1 from the Fall of 1941, in 9.0 condition, which is tied with three other copies for the highest grade examples of this book; and a copy of the classic Sub-Mariner Comics #1 in 7.5.

 

While not a comic book, but an just as important entry in the history of comics period, is one of two-known self-portrait cariacatures of Charles Schulz, creator of "Peanuts." Accompanyied by Snoopy, Schulz openly stated he was not a fan of doing self-portraits, thus making this a rare find indeed. Also, Hake's is offering a page of original art for the "Peanuts" strip from June 21, 1962. As always, there is also a healthy selection of great Disney art too.
