John Buscema family sketches: the Spider-Man was, in the end, a good deal at $1,6k, the great but unsigned Wolverine for $1,4k, the color Venom for $1k. The Punisher and Carnage sketches remained very affordable at $650. Speaking of affordable art, we have a 1940 Terry daily by Caniff sold for $750, a Spidey page by Chris Bachalo sold for the same price, and all of the Bronze Age Marvel pages: with the exception of the Morbius page by Redondo, sold for $1,4k, they all stayed under $1k. Iron-Man by Tuska for $950, Thor, also by Tuska for $630, the great Dracula page for $550, Frankenstein by Val Mayerik for $600, Loki by Gil Kane for $550, and the Perez page for only $300.
Heritage Weekly Auction: I’m a big Gill Fox fan, but I totally overlooked this WWII panel cartoon sold for $2,6k. Monster sketches by Wally Wood are going for high prices, this one went for $2,4k. $2,3k is a pretty high price for a Secret War page by Gabriele Dell'Otto, but it was a particularly strong piece. The Wash Tubbs daily went for $1,8k, a Gumby page by Art Adams for a little less, this Defenders page by Don Perlin for $660 was a good catch. A 1941 Letter written by Jerry Siegel to Sheldon Mayer was sold at Nate Sanders’ for $2,5k. |
