CLICK HERE FOR AUCTION LISTING!15x20" Crescent Illustrator's Board features mixed media original art for front cover of box for VHS release of The Adventures Of Young Indiana Jones: Masks Of Evil. 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 seventeenth film in The Adventures Of Young Indiana Jones, it was edited together from The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles episodes "Transylvania, January 1918" and "Istanbul, September 1918." Art was created by noted entertainment illustrator Mike Butkus, who provided art for many Young Indiana Jones home media releases. While Indiana Jones movie poster artist Drew Struzan provided art for The Young Indiana Jones Chronicles, Butkus was brought in as his style was rather similar to the detailed, yet stylized Struzan style Indiana Jones fans had come to expect, w/images of Flanery along w/co-star Katherine Kendall as Bob Peck menaces as General Targo. Art features beautiful use of color, w/artist's signature at bottom right. Top and left/right margins have some aging, but main art area remains clean and Exc. Of note, art is more extensive than seen on VHS box (an example is included in this lot), which cropped some amazing detail seen in the original art by Butkus. Comes w/textured paper overlay, which is no longer attached at top and shows scattered wear.
