DAREDEVIL #158 3D shadowbox paper sculpture 1980
Original art by Frank Miller & Josef Rubinstein
Published by Marvel Comics 1979
Circa 1979-80, I made a 3D Shadowbox of Daredevil #158 (published by Marvel Comics in May 1979) simply because I liked the cover by Frank Miller & Josef Rubinstein. Little did I know it would be the landmark first appearance of the legendary Frank Miller on the book and increase in value.
Anyway, I have kept this shadowbox in my personal collection occasionally having it on display in a local comic book store or SDCC. Otherwise it has been in storage. Over the years, the red coloring had gotten badly sun faded from the store display and in my home.
With my return to doing 3D Shadowbox work, I recently restored the 3D in preparation to display it at a local comic convention. This time I used color laser scan print copies on the top few layers to restore the faded red color.
Given that the book is priced on ebay ranging from $30 to around $500, I've no idea what the value of this 3D might be worth.
