Very nice piece by the Master, and during a great time period for his work! I was seriously eyeballing this one for a long time before I found the cemetary scene from Cycle of the Werewolf instead. But this piece is so beautiful! Congrats on the score!

Cmon. Its drawn in his best, most time consuming style. Its just as good as his Frankenstein.

Wow! What a cool Bernie Wrightson illustration! Maybe it doesn't have Frankenstein in it, but it's still really awesome! Congrats!
