What?!? Shaun emailed me a few months back asking me approximate values for some illustration art, including a Maguire, but I don't recall this piece being one that he showed me! Anyway, great piece, John, and I guess you win again!

Well, the deal was done four years ago so...

John, you've had this for decades and still don't know it's the cover to What Really Happened by Brett Halliday (Dell 9458)? Well, I guess now you know! It's a beauty, and nice to see it isn't as dark as it printed. Love the single shoe trope McGinnis loved using!

I do have the book, I was just too lazy to go digging for it!

Dale Manesis, the legendary Milwaukee dealer, was the one who bought the original trove of BLB covers that came out of Racine, WI in the early 1970's. Most of the original buyers kept them for decades and they are rarely seen. Fantastic!

I own a couple, but congrats on this. I am blown away by how cheap they are of late....and I have no idea why. 

I think the depressed prices only reflect the amount of material that was put into the market at one time by a lifelong Cornwell collector. I, for one, am glad to have gotten a couple of painting, because it will not happen again!
