Description

Very pleased to add a piece by the legendary master of comics, Will Eisner to my collection! Here's some information on this piece from the dealer I purchased it from:

In 1975 the legendary Will Eisner wrote and drew a paperback book for Tempo Books called "Odd Facts." It was a collection of unsuspecting and unique bits of trivia. Offered here is a nice entry from that book! This was a follow-up to Eisner's book Incredible Facts, Amazing Statistics, Monumental Trivia published by Poorhouse Press in 1974. Eisner created a series referred to as "Gleeful Guides" prior to his pioneering work in the area of graphic novels starting in the late 1970s. This published Newspaper Pinup dated 12-23-1975 features "ODD FACTS" in history. Art is drawn on 4.5 by 8.5 inch art board, and has his printed name inked at the bottom! Just a neat piece by this iconic "SPIRIT" artist!

That is quite a description! Lots of odd facts about Eisner's career doing these comics that got his name out there to a wider audience.
