The private collection of Jim & Gayle Halperin includes original EC comic book art, work by R. Crumb (such as the original Big Yum Yum book), Maxfield Parrish prints and a lot of other great stuff.

There's some really cool stuff in there but seeing slabbed Mad comics bummed me out.

Wowie xowie! A feast of a collection of collections! Great post. Thanks for the marvelous browsing. Huh, who knew Crumb drew on spools? The many Crumb pages are so interesting!

Just as a bit of background, Halperin is one of the co-founders of Heritage Auctions, the largest collectibles auctioneer in the world.
