Rick Yager - Buck Rogers Sunday Comic Strip Original Art (NEA Syndicate, circa 1951).
<B>Rick Yager - Buck Rogers Sunday Comic Strip Original Art (NEA Syndicate, circa 1951).</B></I> <I>Buck Rogers</B></I> was the science fiction strip that started it all! First appearing on January 7, 1929, Buck set the tone for all science fiction comics to follow. Rick Yager's dynamic Sunday, numbered 108, features all of the fabled <I>Buck Rogers</B></I> SF hardware you could desire: rocket ships, armed space stations, dry docks, and <I>haute couture</B></I> spacewear. Unfortunately, war and violence still exist in the far-flung 25th Century, and this Sunday has a top-notch space battle sequence that must have been unsurpassed, for pure imagination, until the "Star Wars" films came along decades later! The image area of this large Sunday is 18.5" x 27.5". A paste-on lettering correction in panel two is lifting off the surface of the paper a tad, otherwise the art is in Excellent condition. As the astronauts in "The Right Stuff" said, "No bucks, no Buck Rogers!" Win the space race with this incredible SF masterpiece! <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.
