Description

Original artwork for the 'Big Bill Samson' comic strip which appeared in various Gerald Swan comics and comic albums in the UK. This one is documented as appearing in Cute Fun Album 1951 and Slick Fun Album 1951, although I haven't seen either to confirm this.

Big Bill Samson seems to have been a vaguely 'Tarzan' like figure. The published strip can be viewed at: https://comicbookplus.com/?dlid=76521
