Jack Kirby and Joe Simon - Black Cat Comics #6 Complete 9-page Story,  The Story of a Guilty Conscie
<B>Jack Kirby and Joe Simon - Black Cat Comics #6 Complete 9-page Story, "The Story of a Guilty Conscience" Original Art (Harvey, 1947).</B></I> Jack Kirby and Joe Simon team up to create the striking story, layout, and art of "The Story of a Guilty Conscience." Simon and Kirby, who were from the mean streets themselves, immerse the reader in the tale's Runyonesque environment. S & K's ace letterer, Howard Ferguson, contributes to the impact of the story by providing some eye-catching, 3-D title lettering effects, done in two point perspective. The backgrounds of this story are packed with big-city detail and long shadows. The art is drawn on illustration boards, with an overall size of 15" x 20", and an image area of 12.5" x 18.25". The image area is in Very Good condition, with some minor paper aging and wear along the edges of the boards. A lettering correction in panel five of page one has slipped off the board. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> 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.
