Classics Illustrated Green Mansions #90, pg 4 (Gilberton, 1951)

Gilberton. December, 1951.

Page 4 from Issue #90 of Classics Illustrated featuring "Green Mansions".

This was the first page of original comic book art that I purchased, back in the fall of 2009. There was a box with several dozen pieces standing up out of it that were for sale at the comic shop I worked at. Mostly 1980s Archie art and some other Classics Illustrated pages. I have no affinity to the title but original pencils and inks on a large board like this for $30 with my employee discount seemed like it was worth the price. It took about 6 months to realize if art existed for this random Golden Age issue, it probably did for other comics.
