DescriptionOriginal Art for the Thrills of Tomorrow #20 cover, published in April of 1955, and featuring Stuntman. It measures approximately 9" by 10 3/4", and looks like it is vellum attached to board. Like many of these covers from the '40's through the '60's, it is just the main art image without the logo, as they often took the upper portion of the art board to be reused on additional issues. It has the Comics Code Approval stamp on the back from late 1954 (second picture). It features a classic Stuntman image attributed to one of the greatest legends in the history of comics, Jack "King" Kirby. Kirby is of course best-known for his work at Marvel Comics in the 1960's, where together with Stan Lee he co-created the Fantastic Four, the X-Men, the Mighty Thor, the Incredible Hulk, the Silver Surfer, and many more classic characters and teams. He is also of course the original co-creator (along with Joe Simon) of Captain America back in the 1940's at the start of the Golden Age of comics. But I believe it's pretty rare to have a Kirby superhero cover from the 1950s, so this is a pretty rare opportunity. Don't miss out on a chance to get an amazing piece that would look outstanding framed, and would be a key piece in any collection.Social/Sharing |
