BangZoom Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 I was thinking more about original art than Sunday Pages. I do own an original 1963 Flash Gordon Sunday page by Mac Raboy if that counts for anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 I have some Bob Fuje 1980 Flash dailies that I bought off him personally when he attended SDCC some years back - that's as close as I've come (they're still pretty cool). I like Bob Fuje's artwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted August 9, 2012 Author Share Posted August 9, 2012 The above art is a recreation by Acerno by the way. It is even more impressive up close and highly affordable for those with limited funds and OCD. I'm not very familiar with Acerno's work, but I'm impressed with what you posted. He's very good.

red rocks-migration Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I guess I can understand where Bangzoom is coming from. I've lucked into a collection of 60's DC's all 9.4-9.6's that I bought for lower prices (like $30 each). I see no reason to sell them, they are beautiful and I'm in for a low price of 10% of their value, so might as well keep them, like Bangzoom does! His are just worth a lot more, but the thinking is the same. There is no pressure to sell if you are in for a low price. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I have some Bob Fuje 1980 Flash dailies that I bought off him personally when he attended SDCC some years back - that's as close as I've come (they're still pretty cool). I like Bob Fuje's artwork. I would like to see those dailies again. Fuje's Hangman was something special and he did great work for Hillman, Harvey and Continental as well.

jbcomicbox Posted August 16, 2012 Share Posted August 16, 2012 I have some Bob Fuje 1980 Flash dailies that I bought off him personally when he attended SDCC some years back - that's as close as I've come (they're still pretty cool). I like Bob Fuje's artwork. Here are two recreations that Bob did for me....On the Pep he asked me "if he could change it a bit, because he could draw better now....." Could he??!!! Very nice line work on the art. Note his signature. Steady as a rock jb Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sacentaur Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) I would like to see those [Flash Gordon] dailies again. Not sure if you are thinking of these BB - I purchased them directly from Fujitani at a convention back in 2005 (autographed on the back).

sacentaur Posted August 17, 2012 Share Posted August 17, 2012 This is kind of neat, a Raboy 1964 printer's proof (purchased from a private collector). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Thanks, BB. Fuje did some beautiful work. I think I'll mosey over to DCM tonight and take a gander at some of his stories in Hangman and Pep. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BangZoom Posted August 17, 2012 Author Share Posted August 17, 2012 Here are two recreations that Bob did for me.... I love those recreations, Jon. I think those Fuje pieces are among my very favorite works you commissioned from the various Golden Age artists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scrooge Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 All these folks visiting Baltimore, could let me know ... I live in town Glad you guys enjoyed your visit. :thumbsup: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 BB, I thought of you when I saw this Sunday page. My comic book page is small compared to that one. The whole family enjoyed Geppi's Entertainment museum although my grandson thought the Superman statue was kind of scary. I liked the cowboy stuff and the comics.

BangZoom Posted August 19, 2012 Author Share Posted August 19, 2012 All these folks visiting Baltimore, could let me know ... I live in town I thought you lived in the Midwest. However, I did think of you when I went to the Railroad Museum and saw this boxcar used in WWI which was presented to the state of Maryland by the French National Railroad. The museum was full of cool trains. (thumbs u Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
