Description

This is the title splash to the children's audio book The Case of The Laughing Sphinx. I had this book as a small kid and loved it. Very fond memories. When I saw it for sale I had to have it. Nothing is better than recapturing some of your youth!! If you'd like a fun read/watch, it's posted on YouTube. Super fun!

Stunning piece !! I almost pulled the trigger on this (having recognzied Aparo's style), but you acted faster and I'm glad you managed to land this, as you have a special place in your heart for this wonderful work (I never had the book as a youngster). Congrats on this fantastic addition to your great collection !

Hey Gal, Thanks for the nice comment. Ya I jumped when I saw it. It's been 30 years since I had the book but when I saw this I instantly had a feeling I knew where it was from. I couldn't place where for a few minutes. Then it came to me in a rush of childhood euphoria. I contacted Mike about it right away. Then I went about watching the audio book on YouTube. It is great. I recommend it. Great art. Fun story. I'm a happy kid again!

great pickup. i thought it had an aporo-y vibe to it, but i couldn't figure out where it was from. i as well considered snagging this piece but didn't do it do to the unconfirmed artist. glad it made it to a good home! here's the color version: https://img1.etsystatic.com/051/0/6376423/il_570xN.669544461_if8l.jpg
