Description

Original hand-drawn (penciled and inked) art for a classic Golden Age early 1930's Tailspin Tommy daily by the legendary Hal Forrest. I believe Tailspin Tommy was the first aviation adventure comic strip, starting in the late 1920's after Charles Lindbergh's famous 1927 flight across the Atlantic, which captivated the public's interest and led to a newfound fascination with flying, bringing about not only Tailspin Tommy but additional action/aviation strips that followed. This is a great example from 1932, and very large, measuring approximately 29" by 7 1/2". Some light staining around the edges, but overall very nice, and with the original Bell Syndicate copyright sticker still attached, which isn't always the case. Speed Sees The Light! The piece has been signed by Hal Forrest in the last panel. Because of the large size, the piece will be shipped lightly rolled, unless the buyer wants it sent flat, which will be more expensive. This is an outstanding and rare piece of classic GA art.
