Sorry if this has been discussed before. I did a check on CAF and I can't find any pieces in any collections. Did any of it survive, does it ever come up for sale? Any input would be greatly appreciated.

It comes up every now and then, though I haven't seen any lately. I think Dan may have some, check with him. Seems like somebody else bought some a little while back. Do a board search. I don't collect it.

Welcome to the board. Are you a Valiant fan as well or just the Nintendo stuff?

Thank you so much. My main collecting foci are Timelys and Silver/Bronze Marvel original art. As I travel to many cons in a year, I thought it might be nice to add these Nintendo books/OA to my hunt but the damn things are just as tough as a Marvel Mystery Comics #5 or a Kirby splash for crying out loud. :)

Defintely a fan of the Valiant universe !

Dan: Very cool stuff, thanks for sharing. I see that it appears to be for sale. Let me know what you want for the two Mario pages and we'll get a deal done.

Thanks,

Jim

Sweet. Thankfully I have not caught the OA bug. (besides my Hobos, which are SUPER cool).

But I sure do like checking out all the OA while I'm getting my sketches at SDCC.
