FACT if I stop posting, trillions and trillions of transistors would be out of work.

I know that back in the day, some art was held and trashed by the studios and some was returned to the creators. But I have never really seen any top covers for sale. AF #15, AMS #1, FF#1 etc. are they locked in collections or are they out there.

I love your take on, Crime SuspenStories 22 BTW. Very nice
The Anthony Castrillo one? Thanks!
As for classic SA covers, maybe my classics aren't everyone's, but I know that the Mystery In Space 90 and Flash 123 covers have survived the years. Both are in CAF galleries.

I have just never seen these type of covers for sale. My 1st choice given unlimited choice and money, would be a sci-fi cover of some sort. Probably a Mystery in Space. I wish.

They are all out there. 20 years ago I heard, many times removed, a story of someone walking into the Marvel offices and seeing XXX going through a stack of key covers.
Most Marvel art already has examples going back to FF3, even farther pre-hero. Its all there, as I have said for many years..in the dark hole of collecting. Those that don't need the admiration of other collectors to enjoy their art hold the keys.
