Tick Uncut Trading Card Original Art - Ben Edlund

This is the original art to 2 of the tick uncut trading cards.

I got this from Ben during the 1992 Chicago Comicon. I was working at the convention for a dealer from my hometown. By the time I got to him, Ben wasn't accepting any more commissioned pieces but had some original Tick art he was displaying. Now you have to understand that back then I wasn't just a fanboy, I was the king of fanboy's. So I went through Ben's entire portfolio asking....

ME: "How much for this one?"
Ben: "That's not for Sale"
Me: "How about this one?"
Ben "Not for Sale"
Me: "what about this one"
Ben: "$500"
This went of quite a while until....
Me: "and this one?"
Ben: "$50"

SOLD!

And it's been one of my prize possessions ever since. Which is why the pic is weird, it's framed so I couldn't scan it. Each card is 5.5 x 8 inches.
