Very sporadically logging in, as I have no time and also my own collecting is pretty much freezed because of lack of income.
But always joyful to show my #8… 

Wait, wait, wait...I missed this yesterday. YOU are "Claudio", correct?
Kirby signed this FOR YOU??????

I would LOVE to hear THAT story....just WOW.

That’s why it’s my favorite copy of FF8!

Bathe here: 

— from 2 years ago (it seemed less!). And I hope in short I will have a new one, albeit smaller, incoming.
Or one titled Worldwide Atomic Age / Anti-Communist items .  

That was an awesome sale! Still have both pieces I picked up.

Truly VIBRANT color strike on this copy …probably my favorite colors for SA marvel banners - that golden yellow over that deep rich blue. Something about that combo…and of course, best enjoyed in the raw imho.

I suspect @Kramerica will want to see too

Yes, I visited him in his Thousand Oaks home in 1991. I don't have the picture I am sure I already posted at hand (I changed computer recently) but if I find it I will post it.
My interview was re-transcribed by Kirby Museum collaborators (due to interest from Rand Hoppe) and John Morrow just asked to re-publish it in the new translation and it should appear in a Kirby Collector issue from 2025, more likely 2026 (as they're all already scheduled).
