Description

The splash page to "Devils in Baggy Pants!" from Two-Fisted Tales #20 (EC, Mar-Apr 1951). Craftint panel inserted in the center.
It has been said that Wood was assigned to this story because of his past as a paratrooper.

Initially, I bought the whole story for $400 from Russ Cochran in March 1983 being listed as 'not sold' in a previous auction. Sadly enough, later that year I traded the story to Russ for the second Carl Barks Lithograph "An Embarrassment Of Riches". Bad move.
Almost 25 years later I found the splash on eBay from an English seller and paid $2500 - for the splash alone!

This is lovely. Your description is so funny. Letting stuff go and paying multiples  later on to get it back. Been there. It hurts.
