Yeah, many of them were Element Lad sketches done for me by other pros, it really hurt to let them go.

Some don’t realize the attachment one can have to various works of art. Makes the parting with them not just the selling of a commodity.

Especially since I don’t buy with flipping in mind. I have a Byrne Fantastic Four page which has the Twin Towers showcased, two Mike Zeck pages that I later got signed when I met him, among a plethora of others which bring to mind the phrase “…from my cold, dead hands”.

Selling those must have been painful. Maybe they’ll show up on the market, affordable. People do what they have to do and priorities supersede our collections at times.

Man O Man. Well, he’s keeping some of the stuff he’s bought from me, and he has some serious treasures in his collection, but you gotta do what you gotta do! I know I’d have a helluva time parting with some of my Jose Luis Garcia Lopez art if it came to that! I even have his pinup of Minetti! I LOVE it!

Now for a round of eeny-meanie-miney-mo.

Very sad for him.
