After my mother passed away, we consigned 52 oil paintings at an art specialty auction house, with a promise they would split them up among several auctions to pull the highest possible prices.
6 weeks later we got a check for $500 and no accounting.
Hama was also an actor for awhile. He was on several episodes of MASH. There was a lot of verisimilitude which he brought to his military comic books because of his own personal military experience. When he was teamed up with Herb Trimpe the combination was dynamite as Herb Trimpe was an Air Force veteran who had also done a tour in Vietnam as a combat weatherman.

$850? Thats insulting. I sold my collection back in '03 and got over $2000 for it back then.
Larry Hama is an odd duck.
