Dear Ogulcan,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry. Sadly regarding technical problems, the images and estimation were not displayed properly. I apologize for the delay.

The presented object appears to be a drawing in ink on paper with the measurements of 20 x 26 cm. The drawing depicts the head of the comic character Batman and is signed by Bob Kane (1915-1998, American). There were many drawings with similar motif and size sold in the last years. Mostly they are sold between 200 and 300 USD but reach sometimes higher hammer prices.
This piece is in good condition and there are no serious damages visible.
An estimation would be between 200 to 400 USD.
This estimation is based on actual recent past recorded auction sales of comparables. Retail "asking prices" can be higher and vary.

With kind regards,
Georg
