Description

Very Historic panel page from the first appearance of Conan, from issue #1. Written in 1970 by Roy Thomas and drawn by the great Barry Windsor-Smith (known as Barry Smith at this time).

Conan is a imprisoned and shown in 3 of the 4 panels.

The first pic shows the page with an overlay. The upper left panel #1 was changed for publication. My second pic shows the page without the overlay, with a different panel #1 with Conan laying in a different position. Both the overlay and the panel underneath are original art.

I can now make 2 check marks off my Bucket List (1st Conan and BWS page).

I am tremendously blessed and lucky to now be the caretaker for this page.

Very big mahalo to Federico for making a cash/trade deal happen.

Bonus art from BWS. A four panel page with five panels! The pencil art untouched by Adkins is also a nice hidden joy to behold.

The first panel version is better than the one Marvel went with. Crazy editors.

Congrats on such an important addition to your stellar first appearance collection! I briefly owned this page and can say, the hidden pencilled panel is the coolest part of the page! Great get!
