Heritage Auction Galleries' latest Signature Auction of vintage comic books and original comic art, held May 23, 2008 in Dallas, Texas, brought $3,721,075 for 1,407 lots, although after-auction sales are still ongoing and are expected to raise the total to even higher levels.
"This auction was highlighted by the spectacular Kylberg Collection," said Ed Jaster, Vice-President for Dallas-based Heritage, "a remarkable assemblage of virtually all the field's top comics , including the 1938 first appearance of Superman in Action Comics #1, which realized $116,512 - making it the first restored book ever to exceed $100,000 - and the 1939 first appearance of Batman in Detective Comics #27, that brought $65,725, as well as the first appearances of such later superstars as Iron Man in Tales of Suspense #39, which sold for $10,755, a record price for the grade and more than double Guide. The price realized for the entire collection - nearly $700,000, an average of about $8,000 per book - exceeded everyone's expectations, including those of Rich Kylberg, the Denver media executive who assembled the collection."
