Description

This is a unique opportunity to own a complete set of the Frank Frazetta Famous Funnies Portfolio published in 1975 by Russ Cochran. The prints themsleves are in pristine mint condition while the folder would best be described as near mint.

Frank Frazetta was born in Brooklyn, NY in 1928. his formal art training started at the age of eight at the Brooklyn Academy of Fine Arts. Like many other fine artists and illustrators of today, he obtained his first professional experience drawing for the comic books of the mid-1940's throught the mid-1950's. During this time he did everything from backgrounds and lettering to complete stories and covers.

In 1953 and 1954, while working as an assistant to Al Capp, Frazetta drew a series of eight covers for use on FAMOUS FUNNIES comics #209 through #216. These eight covers, all featuring the character Buck Rogers, have made these issues valuable collector's items. This portfolio of these eight covers was reproduced from the eight original drawings, with the colors added by Frazetta. They represent some of the finest artwork ever done for the comics medium.
