John Romita Sr. - Original Cover Art for The Av
John Romita Sr. - Original Cover Art for The Avengers #119 (Marvel, 1974). He collects superheroes the way other men collect insects! He's the Collector, and he's back with a vengeance! John Romita Sr. is the man behind this unforgettable cover image from 1974, and it is a perfect example of Bronze Age Marvel superheroics at its best. The art measures 12.25" x 18.25" and has a 10.75" x 16" image area. The original illustration, drawn on a sheet of thin vellum, was pasted to another board; the vellum has a slightly dark hue to it, but the image is so overpowering, and chock full of Avengers, that this is a very minor detraction. The logo and indicia are recent replacements. Signed twice by John Romita Sr. 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.
