Do you really like Iron Maiden!

[MegoMark71]

Wasn't the artist named pushead if i remember correctly. I think he did early Motley Crue, and some Megadeath drawings as well.

The price of material things does not suprise me at all these days. People like stuff and if they truly do want it they will pay for it.

I was always a fan of Iron Maiden's art work more so than their actual music. The album covers, shirts, posters and whatever else they make is pretty cool just to look at. Some of their music is not bad either. I listened to Iron Maiden when I was younger. I still listen to certain Iron Maiden tunes everyone now and then.

I was fortunate enough to keep all of my concert shirts. Something told me that they would be worth $$$ some day.

I do not recall seeing his name on the bands you mentioned above.

I do remember seeing his name on most of my Metallica covers though.

You can read more about him here.

I'm pretty sure he did the character alister fiend for Motley. Not sure what the picture was for Megadeath.

Ok apparently my memory is fuzzy and maybe a friend told me that and i believed them but i can't find anything backing it up either. I did find that allister was the narrator of '"In the beginning" the part b4 shout at the devil. Weird talent but i can say it word for word. I made the wife listed to the 2 disc live crue about a month ago and did it for her. Her reply was just "Lovely"

I remember that Crue intro all to well. It is pretty cool.

I did not want to say for sure because I really did not know for sure on the other bands that you mentioned. I was doing some background research on Megadeth just a little bit ago and I see that Ed Repka did most of their earlier art work.

One of my all time Megadeth favorites was Peace Sells....But Who's Buying. I love that art work! Now after all these years and thanks to reading this thread I finally looked it up and found out the person that made it.

These were my scores today. For those uninitiated, the more rare shirts here would be the '77 Pink Floyd and the '76 ZZ Top. 70s shirts are generally harder to turn up--most of these are 70s. That Wings shirt is from '76 and is a pretty tough pull. '81 Stones with dragon is not very rare (i've had it a least 5 times in the past) but in demand and very popular design. Yay tour shirts!

Ok cool cause it was that cover i was thinking as far as megadeath went. Now i know as well. I really need to dig deeper into pictures of allister cause i swear i saw his sig in the corner. Oh well this might take a while.

Pushead has done a lot of well known work for Metallica over the years.

The artist that Iron Maiden used during their classic period for album covers and shirts (including the Texas tour shirt in that auction) was Derek Riggs:

Vic Rattlehead was Megadeth's version of Maiden's Eddie. Artist Ed Repka did tons of album covers.
