Description

This is from the early 1940's and shows Frank Robbins early work which I love and was obviously heavily influenced by Milton Caniff. Fun aviation themed daily. Only 1940-42 is possible for the year. If anyone has reference and can help me with exact year that would be appreciated.

It still has some of those Robbins heavy ink marks, but reined in quite nicely.

Frank Robbins' talent is exhibited. Nicely designed and inked waiting for that later use of the heavy brush and gritty faces.

I continue to be of the opinion that Robbins was a great artist, but just NOT adaptable to superhero art......
