Bob Bolling and Mike Esposito Life with Archie #283 Complete 5-Page Story "Best Foot Forward" Original Art (Archie Comics, 1991). The Archie books' roots in old-school Hollywood slapstick have never been more self-evident than here -- a direct descendant from the 1929 Laurel & Hardy comedy, "The Perfect Day", in which Edgar Kennedy's gout-ridden foot becomes the object of all sorts of agonizing mayhem. Here, the gouty foot belongs to high-school Principal Weatherbee, and the schoolkids keep trampling on it. A memorable exercise in home. Created in ink over graphite on Bristol board with an image area of 10" x 15". There is moderate age-toning, and a number of marginal pinholes -- evidence of the art's frequent repositioning upon a drawing table. The title is a paste-up and has discoloration. In Very Good condition.
