Cranston, RI, USA, December 3, 2021 -- Bruneau & Co. Auctioneers will ring in 2022 with a 20-lot New Year’s Day Premier Comic Auction on Saturday, January 1st. It’s a modest group of comics, but don’t let the size fool you. These books are from a single-owner Midwest collection (Bruneau & Co. sold the bulk of them this past year); what remains are his last, final comics, to be sold without reserves.

All 20 lots are rare, highly desirable Marvel comics from the Silver and Bronze Age, to include Amazing Fantasy #15 CGC 5.5, Amazing Spider-Man #1 CGC 7.5, Fantastic Four #1 CGC 8.0, Strange Tales #110 CGC 9.2, Incredible Hulk #1 CGC 6.5, and Werewolf By Night #1 CGC 9.8. Comics of this caliber rarely come up at auction. Serious collectors need to mark their calendars.

“This is an incredible opportunity and honor to handle a collection of books of this caliber, especially as some are of the finest examples available,” said Travis Landry, a Bruneau & Co. auctioneer and the firm’s Director of Pop Culture. “This is going to be the most exciting New Year’s Day I’ve had in a long time.” Mr. Landry is an appraiser on PBS’s Antiques Roadshow.

Kevin Bruneau, Bruneau & Co’s president and an auctioneer, added, “It’s amazing to see how an auction can only be twenty lots of comic books and produce the same results as a fine art auction. It just shows you how strong the market is for this property and where the collecting interests are today.” Bruneau & Co. has become an industry leader in auctioning comic books.

Internet bidding will be facilitated by LiveAuctioneers.com, Invaluable.com, Bidsquare.com, bidLIVE.Bruneauandco.com and the mobile app “Bruneau & Co.” on iTunes or GooglePlay.
