Jimmy:
We really have some similar taste... I also have an original Mullin of the Bum and the same type of Topps Cartoon art. I will try to dig both up, and post them before too long.

Regarding the first Perez painting, it was also acquired from REA in the same auction. They had so many Dick Perez originals offered at once, that the prices remained fairly low. It was a unique opportunity, and in retrospect, I wish I tried harder for a few more. The only other piece I acquired at the time was the original Ty Cobb Watercolor used to make his Greatest Moments Card. A beautiful piece, which I sold a couple of years ago.
