1st Prize!

[Visitor Q]

What is your prize underground comix in your collection?

Egads!  I just knew this question would eventually raise its ugly head.


I don't think I can really answer that one.  They're all kinda precious to me.  However, there is a series that still gets me to LOL'ing whenever I read it again.  Still! 

[Visitor Q]

Well I guess my prize book would be my S. Clay Wilson portfolio (not really a comix though) which has original art with it but I think my two favorites are Cunt and Douglas Comix.

Well, it would be easy to say my first print of Zap #1, which is the most valuable, but I think it might be my two copies of the Cunt Comix white pages version. I snagged the last ones Don Donahue had in his inventory.

[Visitor Q]

Me thinks you should sell me one of those Cunts, I only got the newspaper version.

Jason

[50Cent #II (1st print)]

Guess mine has to be the signed by R. Crumb Zap Comix #2 (1st print) with COA (the only one) by Donahue stating it's one of 5 that he received from Crumb at the Gallery opening.

[Visitor Q]

I have a few things signed by Crumb. In fact I picked up an issue of Zap that is signed by every single artist that was in that issue including Rick Griffin! Some of it is personalize to the person that must have had it singed at a show but get this, I paid 1 dollar for it at a local comic book store! The guy had no clue it was signed until after the fact.

This was only about 2 to 3 years ago, so there are still treasures to be found out there!

The limited hard cover edition of Head Comix. It was Crumbs own copy and is one of only 5 printed. (If you count art, the Bode cover to Vampirella 3 or the cover the Tales of the Ozone 1,)

[Visitor Q]

Arnold... Can't wait to see that stuff this weekend!

Don't forget to shoot me your cell.

Jason

Ps. Post some pix in the original art section or I can take some for you when I come over.

[dr_s]

When you come over, to paraphrase what  they said in SIGNS, Shoot away. P.S. Anyone coming to the show on Sat, check for me at Dolgoff's comics. I'll be there stealing his books.

[Visitor Q]

I got your email Arnold. I will call you or look for you at that table. Expect to hear from me at some point. I just need to make sure I am back on that train around 7. =]

I'll see you there!

Party at Arnie's house! 

Jason

Arnie has mentioned in the past that I could come over, but I don't know if I want to waste his time since I'm probably not going to be spending a lot of money in NY. I just quit my latest job and promised my wife that after this show, I was going to be doing more selling than buying. I have told her that I'm not selling my undergrounds, though. I'm thinking of bringing some of my doubles to trade, I have a couple extra Cherry Poptart #1's (1st), and a Mr. Natural #1 (1st) and a Freak Brothers #1 (1st) plus a ton of other stuff.

[Visitor Q]

Well if you can make me a list of your doubles I would consdier buying some of it, providing I need it and the price is right.

I don't think you will get much selling stuff at a show, but you never know.
