Descriptiona Wonderful Alex Raymond's Original Art, with a rare combination of Pagan and Rip in both 3 senes.Syndicate 1952 Alex Raymond - Alexander Gillespie "Alex" Raymond (October 2, 1909 – September 6, 1956)[1] was an American cartoonist, best known for creating Flash Gordon for King Features in 1934. The strip was subsequently adapted into many other media, from a series of movie serials (1936–1940) to a 1970s television series and a 1980 film. Alex Raymond's "influence on other cartoonists was considerable during his lifetime and did not diminish after his death".[3] George Lucas has cited Raymond's Flash Gordon as a major influence on his Star Wars films (which, cyclically, inspired the 1980 Flash Gordon film), while Raymond's long shadow has fallen across the comics industry ever since his work saw print. Comics artists who have cited Raymond as a particularly significant influence on their work include Murphy Anderson, Jim Aparo, Frank Brunner, John Buscema, Gene Colan, Dick Dillin, José Luis García-López, Frank Giacoia, Bob Haney, Jack Katz, Joe Kubert, Mort Meskin, Sheldon Moldoff, Luis Garcia Mozos, Joe Orlando, John Romita Jr., Kurt Schaffenberger, Joe Sinnott, Dick Sprang and Alex Toth, among many others.[27] He was the great-uncle of actors Matt Dillon and Kevin Dillon.[30] His younger brother, Jim Raymond, was also a cartoonist, and also an assistant to Chic Young on Blondie. - Wikipedia source Social/Sharing |

often imitated never duplicated...he set the bar and standard of photo-realism in comic strips. One of my favorites!

Such a great Rip Kirby. I love how he drew Pagan and this is one of the best Pagan dailies. Lovely, lovely example.

A very nice strip from the master. His strips from this 50s period are my favorites, his art style was getting even better and more refined/detailed.

Alex Raymond truly is a master. The backgrounds are such a good touch when Vincent the scene. Pagan and Rip remain the focus but are further lifted by the background. What a stunning strip.
