Paul Smith's short but brilliant career at Marvel took everyone by surprise. His simple, almost animation like illustrations were so full of action and personality that he left an indelible mark on the memories of comic art appreciators that has lasted more than 40 years...

You're welcome Joe. Thank you for sharing these amazing pieces with us. btw the 1973 Infinity Con programme actually thanked Jerome for the use of three sketches from his collection and Jeromes collection was also on display at that Con. 

I got this from Jerome's collection as well as the other Adams' sketches...

Be still my heart! A page from Miconauts #1! Did you buy this directly from Golden at a con many years ago?

I did meet Golden at one con and got 2 drawings but I don't remember if that's where I got the Micronauts page.

Joe this is Amazing! Thank you for sharing these beautiful con sketches. Did you get all these in person?

Absolutely, it's why I went to the NYC cons. I rarely bought comics. Byrne and Sienkiewicz, in particular, were extremely accommodating. I'd hang around their booth even after I'd gotten my piece.

Love this, and absolutely adore your entire collection! I started collecting in 1980, and our tastes and interests have huge overlap. Brilliant stuff. Thanks for sharing!

Thanks! An appreciated kudos from a significant collector. Funnily enough I called Bill about buying that Moon Knight no. 23 cover back in the early 80's but unfortunately he said it was already sold... 🤷🏼‍♂️

Did you get this from Richie because I have a couple from him of John;s I got from his store. 

Almost definitely, I got my Adams' sketches from Richie as well as a 7 page "Batgirl" story and the art to "Amazing Spider-man" #92... He had bought a big comic and art collection from a guy in the late 70's... Got me started collecting...
