Description
Every Gold Key from the 1960s and 1970s was not done by George Wilson. I don't know who did this cover art but it WAS NOT George Wilson. Confirmation by Alberto Beccatini. I like the cover but this is not Mr. Wilson's style, especially in the 1960s. Heritage should be more careful in its attributes. Someone may be thinking they are getting a George Wilson.

Good point.  Maybe they don't even know who the artist is.

Attribution is a tricky monster in the wrong hands. They don't know.  I sometimes see people give credit to Artist number 4.  Haha.  And may be it's line drawn by someone, and then Mr. Wilson painted it.  He did a few like that.  But the master of all things Wilson, Mr. Beccatini, states it is one of the few Mighty Samsons, that is not by George Wilson.  Good enough for me.  And when Mr. Wilson did a  painting for The Mighty Samson in the 1960s they were masterpieces. They have many tells that give his art away in spades.   This is a wonderful cover, but not in the vein of Mr. Wilson.  I hope you are doing well, Marcus.  Good to talk to you again.
