Comics are a fast growing and increasingly popular specialist section at Harper Field, an excellent example of how modern items can quickly emerge as an important collecting field requiring specialist knowledge. Harper Field have been achieving notable results in their quarterly specialist comic auctions since 2018, with two large collections making £30,000 and £17,000 respectively and specialist quarterly auctions.
Specialist valuer Kris Ryan has had an interest in comics since childhood and has a wealth of knowledge which he applies to all kinds of comics, not just DC and Marvel but all publishers, in particular golden and silver age. Whether you have a single comic from your childhood or a large collection, Harper Field can advise on the selling process, from the initial valuation to the fall of the hammer on sale day.
