Nestor and Nebres had very similar styles in their finished line art, both of which I love. Just look at this and think for a second, just how much higher level illustration this is than the average Marvel and DC comic during the 1960's. Amazing!

Good point, Ruben.  With a few rare exceptions, most of the art from the Big Two didn't rise to this level of artistic quality.

I see Jerry every year at TerrifiCon and I gave him Issue #1 of Mark Waid's "New History of the DC Universe" to sign. He didn't mention to me he had some of the pages with him. I've never seen him bring any published art with him to TerrifiCon.

I know what you mean.  He usually brings some pre-done sketches and sketch covers, but never any published pages.  And I never ask because I know how reluctant he is to sell his published art.  This was a completely unexpected and wonderful surprise.  That's why I bought 2 of them.  If you can get in touch with Jerry, he still has about 8 pages left from the book.

Holy shit, bro, you REALLY scored due to that nagging collector! Another splendiferous Ordway splash, unbelievable!

Thank you, sir!   Ruben, this was clearly a case of being at the right place at the right time.  And having a friend alert me to the fact that Jerry was selling these pages.  I would never have known otherwise because Jerry did not put them out on his table.  At the end of the show on Sunday, I expressed surprise to Jerry that he hadn't sold out of these pages.  He said it was because he never promoted them and was so busy with signatures and sketches that he never put them on the table.  So, only folks who aksed if he had art for sale would even know.
