锤哥漫画封面卖44,000英镑
A comic book cover that hung on a schoolgirl’s bedroom wall for 30 years has sold at auction 1 for a staggering 44,000 pounds.
最近,一副曾在小女孩卧室挂了30年多年的漫画封面以44,000英镑的价格拍卖成功。
The original art work for Marvel 2 Comic superhero Thor had been valued at 5,000 pounds after the owner decided 3 she wanted to sell it. However, the unnamed woman, now 42, was left stunned 4 when it attracted worldwide interest from serious comic collectors. It went under the hammer for 36,000 pounds and was bought by an American bidder 5 for 44,000 pounds, with fees added on.
漫画的原型是漫威超级英雄雷神索尔。起初就被估价5,000英镑。当年的小女孩,如今已经42岁。她从没想到,这幅画能引起全世界漫画死忠粉这么大的兴趣。最终,该漫画封面竞买价叫到36,000英镑,最后加上其他费用以总价44,000英镑成交。
The art work was for Thor comic issue 158 dated December 1968, which is said to be a significant edition as it was when Thor realised he was a superhero. The adventures of Thor have since inspired a movie franchise 6 starring Chris Hemsworth.
这幅漫画于1968年12月发行,索尔在本专辑首次成为超级英雄。这在漫威史上有很重要的地位。随后,克里斯·海姆斯沃斯扮演的《雷神》电影大热。
The cover was the work of celebrated 8 comic artist Jack 9 Kirby , who helped to create Hulk, Captain America and X-Men.
漫画作者是著名漫画艺术家Jack Kirby,他还参与过绿巨人、美国队长和X战警等超级英雄的创作。
The owner was given the comic book cover as a gift by her late father when she was a child. He was a leading art director and is likely to have acquired the cover via a contact. He gave it to his daughter, who pinned it up in her bedroom in the mid 7 1970s.
该漫画是这位女士小时候,父亲送她的礼物。她父亲曾经是著名布景师,可能通过内部渠道获得此封面。随后,他把封面送给女儿。在她卧室一挂就是30多年。
Richard Bromell, of Charterhouse Auctioneers in Sherborne, Dorset, said: “The cover is the original art work and I think the owner realised it could be valuable and so decided to sell it, rather than keep it hanging up on the wall. We estimated it would sell for between 5,000 pounds to 8,000 pounds, but we were very proactive in finding bidders 10 and had nine of them on the telephones as well as those in the room. It ended up selling for 36,000 pounds to a collector from Ohio in America. The owner was obviously over the moon. We are also delighted with it.”
拍卖行工作人员Richard Bromell表示:“该封面是原作,我想收藏者正是意识到它的价值,才决定卖出,而不是让它静静的挂在墙上。我们起初给它估值5,000英镑到8,000英镑,没想到电话中和在场的竞价者给它的价值翻了9倍。这让我们着实激动。最后以36,000英镑的价格成交,买主来自美国俄亥俄州。原主人估计高兴坏了,我们也替她开心。”
