Vintage Kirby! I hope someone has it and it wasn't destroyed by the Marvel braintrust years ago.

It does exisit, I saw it for sale once about 2000/2001 I believe. I think it was owned or is? By Hans something, but it was for sale for like $100 G's! I've always loved Kirby & especially his Hercules & Thor.

In case you're wondering this original has been in my collection since 1990 when I purchased it out of a CBG ad. At the time, it was a very messy assemblage of art, stats, and white-out all pasted down to a piece of acidic-looking shirt cardboard for support. To save it from impending deterioration, I sent it to conservator, Susan Cicconi,who performed what amounted to magic. Today, it looks great and stands as one of the earliest known JIM cvrs. in existence.

Thanks Hans for the interesting history. This stat is from a Marvel advertisement at the time and I agree it is a masterpiece.
