There have been more then 10,000 Illustrators who have worked in the Illustration & Art area over the past one hundred years. They have created some the most beautiful art and quality paper collectibles ever! Some pieces bring $1,000s of dollars for a single mass produced work on paper. In the area of magazine covers alone it is not unusual for a cover from the teens or the 1920s done by a popular Illustrator to fetch $100.00 or more each! Why such high values? Because of the fine lithographic printing quality of those times; which make many of these works miniature, jewel-like posters of stunning color and form and rarity, as each passing year this old paper becomes scarcer and scarcer. Created works as these are highly frameable as well. Just some of the more popular Illustrators our Collector's & Dealer's Buy, Sell and trade through TICN are listed below:

The few copies of the 11th edition guide that are out there are mostly in the hands of the serious MP collectors who were subscribers to our paper publication that dealt exclusively with buying, selling and collecting illustrators and their old paper collectibles.

Expanded: Heavy on the odd titles from the 1950s and 1960s, 1970s, some titles had only a very few printings, others more. Generally issues from 1920s thru early 1980s have the most value to collectors. Many of the titles here are much rarer then V1,#1 of Playboy and can sometimes be found on ebay and other sites for only a few dollars each, because most sellers do not know true rare issues. Values are given here in for issues that can be priced at way below true values and that is because of ignorance of values, but, that is the reality of the present day marketplace. Also in this guide is our own GOLD 5 star rating system which points out issues that were rare then and will become even rarer in future.
We rate Publishers and issues on a scale of one * thru five ***** Many of those same issues are even rarer now! Proper knowledge of comparison is invaluable. This guide gives you accurate past information pointing the way into the the future. Reference material in this area is very scarce.
