High eBay Comics Item for the Week Ending 2010.2.20 (All Star 9 Splash Page)

ALL STAR 9, STUNNING RARE SPECTRE SPLASH PAGE, 1942!!!

Winning bid: US $12,414.02 Seller: daytona67 ( 432 )

Description:

All Star Comics 9. FEB 1942. Page 1 opening splash page to the Spectre Story. Pen/brush and ink, 'Twice up artwork'. Inked onto medium thick board. As i'm sure all interested parties will know this is a very rare opportunity to acquire an important piece of Golden age Spectre art, i personally have never seen an earlier image than this one of the Spectre, and i don't believe it would be possible to find a better image than this stunning Splash page, i would guess that the art is by Bernard Baily as he was responsible for most early Spectre art, but please do your own research on this. It is in excellent condition overall, there is some light surface discoloration and dirt and a few corner bumps to the board. The top dialogue box is a stat and looks to be original as it's hand inked. There is a VERY small amount of white out to the lower part of the Spectre's leg in the big image and 2-3 very tiny spots in the smaller box's (please see pic), there is a date stamp on the back reading 'FEB. 1942'. The image size is approx 17.3/4" x 12.3/4". I am a long time collector and am selling a few of my pieces, some of which (including this one) hav'nt been on the market for many many years. I will be happy to answer any question's to the best of my knowledge, so please use the 'ask seller a question' button and i will do my best to help.

Heritage November 2009 Auction- 12 Lots of Note.

I went through the catalog yesterday. I limited myself to picking twelve lots of interest to share with you guys. It was tough because this is an auction full of some interesting material. The Joe Kubert lots themselves could have produced a decent set of 12 items to ogle.

hulk1-cgc-9.2

The Incredible Hulk #1 (Marvel, 1962) CGC NM- 9.2

This is clearly the book of the auction. I don't get excited easily by Silver Age marvels, but this book brings a smile to my face. It's tough to find in high grade and it's the HULK.

Hulk smash!

As of this writing it sits at $45,000. Still plenty of room for a thrill bid, I think.
