Description

4 pieces of original art by the great JOHNNY CRAIG (EC Comics, Crime Suspenstories)

all featuring Sir Galahad of King Arthur's Round Table in Camelot

These pieces were created during the early 1970s for an advertising project on which Johnny Craig was working.

SIR GALAHAD was a knight of King Arthur's Round Table and one of the three achievers of the Holy Grail. He was the legitimate son of Sir Lancelot and Elaine of Corbenic and was renown for his gallantry and purity. The art was drawn on artist' vellum and 3 pieces have been archivally mounted on acid-free board to help protect the art and add longevity to its life.

The artwork and mounted boards vary in size from 8 1/2" x 13" down to 5 1/2" x 8 1/2".
Each piece has been signed by the artist at the bottom.
The art comes with a CERTIFICATE OF AUTHENTICITY, signed by long time EC historian, collector and friend of Johnny Craig, Roger Hill.
All pieces in very good condition.

ABOUT THE ARTIST:
Johnny Craig (1926-2001) was born in Pleasantville, New York and grew up in New York City. During his youth he was influenced by many artists, including Milton Caniff and Will Eisner. He broke into the comic's business as an assistant working with Golden Age artist Harry Lambert and went on to become an Assistant Editor to Sheldon Mayer at All American Comics. After serving in the Merchant Marines and the U.S. Army during World War II, he joined up with the EC Educational Comics Company and was soon turning out covers and stories for CRIME PATROL, GUNFIGHTER, MOON GIRL and other titles. In 1950, when Bill Gaines introduced his "New Trend" series of crime and horror titles under the Entertaining Comics seal, Johnny wrote most of his own stories and contributed to CRIME SUSPENSTORIES, SHOCK SUSPENSTORIES, TALES FROM THE CRYPT, THE HAUNT OF FEAR, THE VAULT OF HORROR and others.
