Here is another list from some very early 1960s editions of the Rocket's Blast Comic Collector by dealer Richard Houser out of Champaign, Illinois. I think this might be the lowest prices I've ever seen for quality original art, from some of the top names in the field. A handful of these items were even shown in later issues when they somehow didn't sell (how could that be!). The prices went up five dollar or so, but Richard was also including free shipping in those ads, so the amounts were virtually the same. With all these wondeful pieces of Silver Age art in his listings, who could find time to purchase some of that musty old twice-up Golden Age art he was also cleaning out of his inventory. Some of the examples were even mistakenly credited to different artists, so you might get a Bob Brown Challengers of the Unknown cover over a Jack Sparling, but does it realy matter with the cost of these originals? Get ready for some unbelievable cheep prices, especially on the covers!
