| I got it!! Most of Mart's stuff from his later years isnt very good, at all, imo (may he rest in peace!). I've been searching for a good piece for a while now. However, when I saw this one, I HAD to have it; I think it's amazing!! Off to VSP and encapsulation, this is  . It may not be the most valuable item, but I am Beyond excited right now; had to share   |

Was thinking of re-framing my Nodell - is only 4x6 but it is one of my most cherished pieces. |

| I've had it for close to 10 or 15 years so probably mid to late 90's or very early 2000's?? My next grail is a Sheldon Moldoff - harder and harder to find and not too much that strikes my fancy. Last year I got 2 commission pieces from Ramon Fradon (co-creator Aqualad!) - one Aquaman and one Aqualad - might get another Aqualad while she is still accepting commissions (90yrs old!!) |

| If you're going to keep it, why not just get it framed at a frame shop using museum glass? | ||

Quote:Originally Posted by Logan510 - Most importantly, VSP. - Slab will match hanging between 1941 GL#1 and 1960 GL#1 - CBCS encapsulation protects it as well, and I'll put on a UV filter. I really dont like the idea of art or a comic between glass. Bad things happen when glass breaks  |

Holy WOW @shrewbeer, that is amazing! I like that he chose to remind everyone that he is the "creator of Green Lantern" nice touch  |

| @BrianGreensnips I confirmed it was done the year of his death, 2006 @Thanatos thanks! I thought that was a nice touch as well; the man was 91, and probably wasn't getting any royalties for his creation |
