Not sure about all of his books, but with Locke & Key I know he sold some covers. Pretty sure he held onto all or most of the interiors though, so it could very well be that way with a lot of his art. Have you tried contacting him directly through social media?

^He sold everything he was willing to sell on Locke & Key. I've made him good offers in the past and they've been ignored. There's someone on CAF with a bunch of L&K covers, but he wants a high multiple of what they originally cost. He also mentioned the IDW president was buying up L&K covers a year or so ago (common news now that they're trying to make it into a TV show, though the jury is still out on whether that will happen.)

 

Good luck.

If he has a website or social media page then I am looking in the wrong place. I can't find him anywhere on the internet

Quick update for you...my covers are locked up now that I am have pared down the collection to my favorite five covers. So no more offers contemplated or prices given.

 

As far as I have heard or seen, there are no alternative sources of his original work other than directly from him or his wife. The only other thing I can think of is to try and shake a cover lose from the two or three other people that bought from his Chilean dealer back in the day, and the one interior page from L&K that is on CAF.

 

On the bright side, I thought I'd never see a Calvin & Hobbes strip, but lo and behold, they are starting to show up here and there, so even the tightest held art eventually makes it to market...it just might take a while.

 

Happy hunting!
