Description

THIS IS HUGE! 25 X 30! AS FAR AS I CAN DETERMINE THIS IS THE ONLY COVER GEORGE WILSON DID WHICH CONTAINS SOME NON-REALISTIC FIGURES. THE GREMLINS SHOWN ARE CLEARLY NOT MEANT TO BE REALISTIC FIGURES. WHY DID HE DO THIS I WONDERED? MARTIN O'HEARN, ONE OF THE GREATEST TALENTS I HAVE SEEN WHEN IT COMES TO DECIPHERING WHICH ARTIST DID A PARTICULAR COMIC BOOK, AND WRITER OF THE BLOG "WHO CREATED THE COMIC BOOKS?", TOLD ME THAT IF I WOULD LOOK AT THE ACTUAL STORY INSIDE THE COMIC I WOULD SEE THE REASON MR. WILSON PAINTED THE GREMLINS AS HE DID. AND SURE ENOUGH THE GREMLINS DO LOOK LIKE THOSE IN THE STORY! SO I HAVE TO ASSUME MR. WILSON AT SOME POINT IN TIME HAD ACCESS TO THE ORIGINAL STORY AND USED THOSE GREMLINS TO DRAW HIS GREMLINS ON THE COVER.

JUST AN ALL AROUND STRANGE BUT BEAUTIFUL COVER. IT REALLY IS CAPTIVATING. CAN'T BELIEVE IT SURFACED AFTER 53 YEARS! AND IN SUCH WONDERFUL SHAPE. BACK STORY IS IT WAS PURCHASED IN NEW YORK IN THE EARLY 1980'S AND REMOVED TO ANOTHER PART OF THE COUNTRY, WHERE IT STAYED OUT OF SIGHT UNTIL TODAY. HOPE YOU LIKE IT.

ADDENDUM: THIS MAY BE THE ONLY REMAINING PICTURE OF THIS ART, TAKEN BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER BEFORE HE MAILED IT OUT. THANK GOODNESS HE DID! IT WAS APPARENTLY LOST SOMEWHERE BETWEEN CALIFORNIA AND MY ADDRESS. CAN'T BELIEVE IT! DISAPPEARED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO. IF ANYONE SHOULD EVER HAPPEN TO SEE IT PLEASE PLEASE LET ME KNOW! THANKS

PS ADDED A PICTURE OF THE PLANE IN THE PAINTING; THIS WAS THE FIRST SQUADRON IN WWII TO SEE FOO FIGHTERS! THAT'S WHY THIS PLANE WAS CHOSEN, I WOULD SURMISE.

'Nightmare at 20,000 Feet' re-visted! The aliens are kinda cute, but it somehow works . . . I like it!

Beautiful cover, always loved this one. It's different and one of my Wilson favorites.

I Thank y'all! I don't know why, but it's one of my favorites too. Very 1960's innocent but scary comic covers. Appreciate you looking!
