Jack Burnley and Charles Paris - Original Comic Strip Art for Batman Sunday dated 2-10-46 (McClure Syndicate, 1946). The "grotesque bird of ill omen," the perfidious Penguin, is at it again in this ultra-rare Batman Sunday strip signed by the Dark Knight Detective's creator, Bob Kane (although the actual art was done by Kane Studio members Jack Burnley and Charles Paris). Batman strip art comes to market very rarely, with Sundays being virtually nonexistent. This is an exceptional piece, with great shots of Batman, Robin, and the Penguin. In excellent condition, the piece measures approximately 20.25" x 26.5", with slight use of white-out. The Bat-logo in the first panel is a stat, but the rest is all original art. Dailies of this vintage have commanded five-figure prices at auction in the past; this is a rare offering indeed. Important notice: Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
