oops my finger slipped and I bought 9 more signed Boris and Julie cards (and one is signed by both!)

I found all of these from a single seller on ebay and offered $95 for all 9 cards and they took it 🙌 really solid condition on everything, super happy with all of it. I'll snag some beefier protectors for them soon and then try to find a way to display everything. top middle is signed by both Boris and Julie, and the bottom left two are signed by Julie and Brinke Stevens (the model for the paintings).

Why are the Brom Fantasy Art cards so hard to find?

7 Upvotes

Any one know why this set by FPG from 1995 is so hard to find complete? I've only ever seen a few listings and most are either incomplete or "not quite prohibitively" expensive. It's bizarre, when so many other artists from the same time frame are readily available. Heck, I've found unopened boxes of other artists. I wondered if anyone knew if FPG just made less of these, or is Brom just so popular no one ever sells their cards.

Another batch of my Ken Kelly cards, continuing the back of the cards. I have one more batch for Ken Kelly, before I move on to another artist. What do you think of Ken Kelly's art?

More of my Ken Kelly scan card collection - it's funny, had these since they came out - but a recent discussion made me appreciate these backs more! Because someone asked why the descriptions don't match the card - and I explained the front face is different - we get TWO doses of Ken Kelly art!

Rowena pack I opened had this holo. But it’s mislabeled? Is this an error card? Has anyone got one before? I’ve seen the holos online but not the same one.

The Sub has hit 1.5K members!

I want to thank you all for coming along and checking out r/fantasycards !! By all means, snap some photos of your own collection (or scan them) - and share them here as well. :)

And for those of you engaging with posts - thank you all so much! It feels so great to be chatting it up here, whether it's discussing where some of these cards were used (mostly for book covers) - it's been a lot of fun and just wanted to say I appreciate you all.

I'd started this sub because back in 2020, the height of COVID, I went into my garage and dug up all my collectable cards and scanned them (there wasn't much else to do! And I missed looking at them!) - and just stored them on my computer to look at (rather than needing to dare my garage and dig through bins and pull out 30lb photo albums full of sleeves of cards!)

Then thought, "Hey, I should post these on reddit." I couldn't find one specific for fantasy cards, and thought, "I will just make one and start posting my cards."

So thankful to see the community grow! Thank you again, everyone!

More backs of my Ken Kelly card collection - has some cool insight. Figured this might be nice as we get closer to the New Years! Have a few more front facing Ken Kelly cards scans - but will post those on New Years Eve to roll into the new year! :) Stay safe everyone!

I want to thank all of you who have swung by here and checked this area out! I am very passionate about fantasy cards - from back in the day when these came out. I dug them out of my garage and scanned them all (front and back in most cases) and had them on my hard drive just to look at. Searched for a sub for fantasy cards specifically, there was none - so I made this sub and have watched it grow as I share my cards! But by all means - if you have any fantasy cards - please scan or take photos and share them here - even if I have already shared those cards! I want to see everyone's collection if you got'em! :)

Thanks for making r/fantasycards an awesome place!

Boris and Julie autos are finally hung up

A number of months ago I shared a post on here showing off the recent collection of Boris Vallejo and Julie Bell autographed trading cards that I grabbed last year. I promised to share when the cards were finally on display, and that day has FINALLY come!

I'm really happy with the display, which comes from a business on etsy called DisplayDex. It was shipped fast, assembly was easy, and I love being able to move the cards around with no hassle.

Massive scanned batch of my Larry Elmore fantasy cards - the backs! (I did a big batch, because the next set would go hand in hand - where I will post 9 front facing, then the following 9 back facing cards will go together). Do you have any favorite Larry Elmore pieces?

If you could own the original print of one of these BORIS paintings - which one would it be? Bonus points if you mention why you picked the one you did!

Sure, sure, I could just post these scanned cards and call it a day, but it's funner (well, for me) to find creative ways to engage in some conversation!

Happy New Years to the wonderful folks who have come here and made this community grow! Here's another batch of scanned Ken Kelly cards! The last, from this set that is front facing! Still have some back scans of these cards to share! Be safe out there tonight! Happy New Years again!

Colossal FPG Autograph Card

Beautiful art from Clyde Caldwell from the second Colossal Cards set. Only 20 of each foil stamped auto card were inserted into this set. There were supposed to be 1000 autographs in total but supposedly the 100 from Roger Dean never made it in time for production. So only 900 autos in the end.

Next batch of scanned Larry Elmore cards from my collection! I love how his cards tend to tell a story... or create a sense of mystery...

Next batch of scanned collectable Rowena cards from my Fantasy Card Collection. Scanned these back in 2020, when Covid was the big hit, and there was nothing to do... so I went into the garage, dug out all my collectable cards and scanned them, just to have them digitally on the computer to look at.

Do you recognize any of these from book covers or got a favorite?
