Kirby Signatures

[Paratrooper]

I just got my Foxhole #2 in the mail, this is the issue with true war stories from Kirby. My question is: Does Kirby do a lot of signings? And if he does, can I send this book to a CGC grader to get signed?

 

If I had to choose only one book to get signed it would be this one by the man who not only wrote the book, but lived the stories in it. Picture coming tonight, when I'm not at working goofing off.

Jack Kirby? If so then he is dead.

[Paratrooper]

Damnit! Why are all the good ones gone....

[Paratrooper]

Jack Kirby? If so then he is dead.

 

but then again, old Soldier's never die........

[Darrell F]

No, pretty sure he died in 1994

[Paratrooper]

Foxhole #2 is that the one with the awsome "beach" cover?

Do anyone here have a Kirby signature comic? I would love to see some.

Nope that's Issue #1 (classic cover) this is the cover to #2 http://boards.collectors-society.com/sho...&PHPSESSID= which happens to include true war stories from Kirby (my reason for buying it)

I've seen a few Kirby signed books (obviously not SS), but unfortunately I don't have any to show.

Very nice, what would Kirby autographed stuff normally sell for?

I've got an Avengers 1 signed "Best Wishes, Jack Kirby" on page 1. Unfortunately, I was an i-d-i-o-t (hoping to avoid the *spoon* insertion here) and didn't get a photo of the signature before sending it to CGC. So now I have a Universal Blue Avengers 1 with the caption on the label. At least it doesn't just say, "name on first page" like some of the captions do. Oh well, at least I know that it's there....

Amazingly, Sckao, that is precisely the same book that I had Kirby autograph! Got mine signed at the '75 NY Comic Con (along with sigs from Adams, Wrightson, Steranko and Smith ). My copy is beat, but it will never leave my collection:

Stan "the King" Kirby is dead, but Russ Heath is still alive and kicking. Hopefully, I'll get a chance to meet him, he's my second favorite artist on war covers.

It's actually not mine... I was too young back then. It belongs to a friend of mine who had it autographed in 1975 (same year!)

I own an FF 100 that was signed by Stan Lee and Jack Kirby near the indicia. I bought it from the same collector who owns the Cap 100 Shin showed a scan of. I also have an FF 94 signed by Kirby. Next time I dig through my FF box I'll scan them.

 

Three other Kirby signatures I own are on prints - one is an FF print that you can see in the "This week in your collection" thread in the OA forum. The others are one a pair of prints depicting Captain America.
