Descriptionsize 10 by 14 inches, Done for Marvelmania posters with their top artist doing self portraits. When I was a kid, I begged my mother to buy these posters, she denied me but now I have the original. Got this from a collector who had this piece in his collection for years and I am so happy he finally parted with this great piece.Social/Sharing |

Awesome! Love how he's hunched over, looking intense, but with that little sly smile. Oh yeah and the heroes are cool, too ;) Congrats!

All these Marvel artists Self Portraits with biography on the back were a dream for us. Unfortunately not easily avalable from this side of the Ocean too, even with a cool mother. I could get this portfolio many years after but even better are the originals. All are exceptional. Kirby, Marie Severin, Colan, Romita, Steranko, John Buscema and at last but not least this Herb Trimpe one which shows how he was a great artist too. Congratulations Albert it's a true masterpiece...

Fantastic! Trimpe's self-portrait here has a touch of early Mad Magazine!

Albert -
A Huge THANK YOU! on behalf of hundreds of comic art appreciators for providing a BIG image. Zooming in to see the inking over blue pencil, the brush and pen calligraphy - it makes the "art" of the artists real (its like finding a thumb print on the underside of a piece of ancient pottery). You're a Mensch!!
