VIEW AUCTION LISTING HERE!20x30" illustration board (mounted to foamcore) features mixed media original art for front cover of box for VHS release of The Adventures Of Young Indiana Jones: Daredevils Of The Desert. The Adventures Of Young Indiana Jones was a series of made-for-television films based on The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles TV show, both starring Sean Patrick Flanery in the title role. The fifteenth film in The Adventures Of Young Indiana Jones, it is an expanded version of The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episode "Palestine, October 1917," originally un-aired in the US, and extended to have a feature-length running time. Art was created by noted movie poster artist Drew Struzan, who had provided poster art for every Indiana Jones movie released at that point (and beyond). Art exhibits Struzan's detailed, yet stylized style Indiana Jones fans had come to expect, w/images of Flanery along w/co-star Catherine Zeta-Jones. Flanery is depicted wearing British pith helmet, as the story saw Indy on assignment in the Middle East. Art also features the spectacular cavalry charge by the Australian Lighthorseman Regiment. Art features beautiful use of color, and Struzan has signed and dated "96" at lower left. Exc. Of note, art is slightly more extensive than seen on VHS box (an example is included in this lot), which was cropped somewhat at bottom. Acetate overlay w/paper overlay attached at top has "Original Art - Fragile - Please Handle Respectfully" inkstamp w/matching inkstamp on back of foamcore, which also has "Daredevils Of The Desert" handwritten title in black marker.
