Hake's To Offer Frazetta In Next Auction & Seeks Additional Consignments

In Hake’s Americana & Collectibles’ last two auctions, sales combined for over $4 million and the long-running auction house is now seeking consignments for their next auction.

Interest in original comic art continues to grow with Hake’s bidders and the auction house - now in their 51st year - has seen many record prices realized.

Of special note, Hake’s Summer auction will include not one, but TWO Frank Frazetta paintings that were published as the covers to Warren’s Blazing Combat #2 (Jan. 1966) and #4 (July 1966). 

Speaking about Frazetta, Hake’s President Alex Winter had this to say “Frazetta is predominately celebrated for his fantasy art, but his war art is not to be overlooked. He expressed the brutality of war in realistic moments of combat, guaranteed to produce visceral reactions from viewers. We are excited to offer these pieces to our customers who appreciate the impact he has had on comic and related art fields.”

Some past auction highlights include – 

• Curt Swan Action Comics #309 cover art that sold for $112,015
• Frank Frazetta Superman art which sold for $35,420
• Norman Mingo MAD magazine #121 cover art that realized $57,241
