The Bidding has began on this auction and there are some great Captain America's to be had at this auction as well as a great 9.8 run of SS the ec classics. Below is a list of the 5 sleepers in this auction...you will be surprised.
5-Merry Christmas from Mickey Mouse:
Possibly one of the rarest items EVER from disney. There is only one graded copy and one ungraded copy that I am aware of. If you go back in time you will see overstreet listed this book with NO PRICE when it was first listed. One of the only items ever treated that way. It is gonna go cheap.
4- Terror of Tales Annual # 1
If you collect EC, you know this is one the grails of collecting, it just does not appear over 4.0 or just does not appear in general, the other annuals sold better that is why they are availlable. DO not let this get away if you collect EC period.
3-Venus #9
Top graded copy at 9.0, 52 pages, great cover, great great book... a book length "whom the gods destroy"....a real sleeper
2- Brave and the Bold cover # 34
If you are gonna blow money on a cover( not 400K plus) this is the one to do it. It has EVERYTHING. When judging artwork I was taught many years ago to look at two things... quality of art and content. This has both great art and great content...yes a lot of people know about it, but in my opinion one the greatest original comic art finds ever to come on the market. This piece has it ALL and looks in mint condition.
1-Carl Barks 16x 20 Ancient Persia original oil painting:
The best one of all the original AP carl barks paintings, nicknamed the Red Persia. Look at the colors jump out at you, this is better than 99% of the Kirby Cofer stuff sold over the last couple of years, where it came from I do not know, give it a look, a stunner in real life is my prediction as sometimes you buy a piece and it looks better in real life than the photoshop. If you have been on the fence on Barks oils you are not gonna go wrong on this one.
About 1400 items to buy and something for everybody in this auction..what are your sleepers on this auction? A solid auction in my opinion.
*paull**paull*
FACT if I stop posting, trillions and trillions of transistors would be out of work.

Everyone knows that Barks paintings are worthless.

it depends on who who you talk to, if you are kirby cofer he is 3.9 million dollars richer on the sale last year of his barks paintings, this is a quality piece that even kirby did not even own... and considering that a world record auction price of $286,000 was for the sport of the tycoon happened in 2011 just does not point to your conclusion.

You can be pretty dense. People are making fun of you and your buddy Theo.
