Tony's Copy of Wimbledon Green by Seth

It seems pretty clear that the MSU Comics Forum in Lansing, Michigan held on February 22 and 23, 2019 was a great venue for obtaining signed books from Seth with original sketches. Seth was the first of two keynote speakers at the event. Now Tony, of Tony's Comic Art and Collectibles located about an hour southwest of Lansing, has just sold what is probably the best copy of Wimbledon Green (2005) we yet have seen. The book, obtained on Saturday at the event, is signed with a gorgeous black and orange profile sketch of "the greatest comic book collector in the world." Not coincidentally, it is also the most expensive copy of the book we've encountered to date; its $250 asking price is more than three times higher than that of any previous Wimbledon Green copy documented on this blog. The book was listed on eBay on or about November 1, 2022 with two others from the same signing and it ended up selling two months ago on eBay for an undisclosed best offer. The other two books still remain available on the site.

Note:  Surely there must be other Seth books out there in private collections with original sketches of this caliber. Please send images my way if you'd like the book to appear on this blog.
