Description

Original hand-drawn (penciled and inked) art for the April 2, 1959 (4/2/59) daily strip of Long Sam, by the legendary Al Capp and Bob Lubbers. The strip is in very good condition, with some slight discoloration in the margins (there is a slight shadow along the right side edge), and some use of whiteout in the word bubble areas. The full page is large, measuring approximately 21" by 6 1/2" (which we believe is about standard size for most newspaper strip original art). Outstanding artwork from the great Bob Lubbers, who is well-known for classic work on many major comic strips, including Robin Malone, Secret Agent X-9, Tarzan, and Li'l Abner. Abner's creator Al Capp had conceived of Long Sam as a takeoff of that strip, but it became a very nice strip in its own right. This is likely one of the best examples you're going to find, with amazing character depictions, and great drama, with an incredible huge last panel.
