I’ve noticed a disturbing trend in auctions of Archie art at Heritage. Several
lots have listed "Dan DeCarlo (Attributed)” as the artist when the art is
clearly by another artist and shows no sign of Dan even touching it. I’ve
emailed Heritage about these errors but to no avail. I’m wondering if they have
someone in-house who does the attributions of art, or are they just taking the
word of the person who’s putting the art up for auction? It seems like someone,
whether Heritage or the seller, is trying to drive up sale prices on art by
lesser artists.
