Description

The production cover artwork for #3 in the Valkyrie Press edition of Bryan Talbot’s classic saga, ‘The Adventures of Luther Arkwright’.

So this takes an acetate overlay of Bryan’s original black and white line work, and which Bryan subsequently hand-painted.

Slightly larger than A4. Acetate overlay over the hand-painted cover art.

Definitely NOT for sale.

I always love that for sale description. Gives me a chuckle. Nothings permanent. Not in my lifetime might be more apt. I loved this series. Got my sister to buy them for me as she was living in England.

Very UK styled to keep every bit of inked fine illustration work intact while having a painted look.
