Title: Original art 2000AD prog 2 sell for $90,000.00
Post by: Tarantino on 27 May, 2020, 06:30:33 PM
I have just spotted this on the Heritage Auctions website and was amazed to see that the original art for 2000AD prog 2 sold for $90,000.00. I think this was last year. Amazing to see. Also I was surprised to see that they've sold quite a lot of original 2000AD art on their website, which is based in the states, I didn't realise there were so many fans stateside.

I hope the link below works.

I just realised, I think you may have to join up to view the sale.

thought this came up for sale a short while back?  Maybe the story came out, but the auction is only now!

It was actually sold in November 2019.

Serious money that!

Nice to see you still around by the way, Tarantino.
I haven't been on the boards for a few years (about 15 to be precise). I bought a set of progs from you back in 2004 when I lived on the Isle of Man.

I remember you, nice to here from you again. Did you take the collection with you?

Oh and I'm only on here a few times a year, just to catch up with the 2000AD world.  :)
