PRAVDA, page 71
Owner: Rarebit Fiend

Comment posted on 1/1/2018
That's really a "key-page" in the story of Pravda. Pellaert is still not well known to comic fandom and thus an under-estimated comic artist. And this truly a shame.

Robert Crumb Mr. Natural 1967 East Village Other!
Owner: Rob Pistella

Comment posted on 8/19/2017
Exciting! You said "a vintage page from 1967", which seems so far in time ... but actually the "spirit" of this page seems to come directly from the platinum age of comics, with that "crude", almost prehistoric, trait of the first Crumb. Awesome piece.

I like very much Floyd Gottfredson. It was the counterpart of Carl Barks, talking of a long career working on mouse and duck... Congrats for the huge Disney collections.

Un bel Brick d'annata, che noi in Italia, da giovanissimi, leggevamo sugli albi Spada sotto il nome di "Bat Star". Un bel tuffo nella memoria. Grazie Ciro per il post.

Enrique Breccia - Painted page from 'Lovecraft' (2002)
Owner: Davide G.

Comment posted on 10/16/2016
Grande il Lovercraft di Breccia ! L'aggiunta del colore che apparentemente "ammorbidisce" la drammaticit� del bianco/nero, in realt� aggiunge il pathos che appunto deriva proprio dal rapporto psichico ed empatico con il colore a volte usato in modalit� espressioniste. Breccia dimostra qui di aver letto ed assotbito la "teoria del colore" di Goethe... E' una delle sue cose migliori. Ho anch'io una pagina da questa storia e penso che appunto prima o poi la poster�.

Alex Raymond: Flash Gordon, 2-23-1936
Owner: Rob Pistella

Comment posted on 10/15/2016
In this comic fandom over-sized of super-heroes, in a landscaped with skyscrapers made of tons of comic-books splash-pages... well to see only eight comments for such a masterpiece of one of the fathers of comics is really, really depressive... I think that among those who came after Raymond only Frazetta, Williamson and very few others have reached a kind of quality like the Master. Rob... a museum piece.

CARL BARKS - UNCLE SCROOGE "Go Slowly Sands of Time"
Owner: CIRO SCOGNAMIGLIO

Comment posted on 10/15/2016
I must admit that Barks' first-sketches-firsts are often much better than the final paintings. In fact, while in the preparatory sketches you still can "feel" tha hand of the artist, the final paintings, instead, show the many touches and re-touches the artist went through in order to obatain the results he wanted to. Thus, the painting looks perfect, but, compared to the sketch, it lacks feelings... At the end, here you can really feel the comic-artist at his best.

Stefano Tamburini, "Snake Agent" - pag. 2 of the story "The Escape of Ronnie the Beast", from "Frigidaire" magazine #8-9, 1981
Owner: Maurizio Scudiero

Comment posted on 8/13/2016

Jeff Singh said:
Fascinating from many perspectives. Reworking and reusing other's art to create a new series is a fun idea. Companies like Fiction House and other artists often reused panels but this is something quite different. I had not realized there was a copier called Rank Xerox which explains Liberatore's creations name in a way I was previously not familiar with.

Yes, because the character of Ranxerox was originally created by Stefano Tamburini, who drawn it in black and white, and only later Tamburini called Tanino Liberatore for the drawings while he curated the script. By the way, I thinl that "Snake Agent" was too ahead in time...

Alex Raymond - Rip Kirby - May 6th & 7th, 1954 - consecutive dailies STOLEN: FOUND !!!

Thomas Ward said:
Oh wow!!! I love these two strips! What did FedEx say in their defense? It had to have tracking numbers...

To Thomas and all friends who wrote about this bad story. The shipping originated in New Jersey and in order to go to Europe instead to go directly to JFK airport was redirected to FedEx headquarter in Memphis (?!) And there the troubles began... This was early October 2015. After dozens of mails by me and also by Robert Pistella eventually on October 29th the shipping was declared "lost". In other words they could not dedicate any more time to search for it... Could be that someday it pop-ups in Bejing or Sidney or in the Death Valley, but nobody will look for it anymore. My hope is that somebody find this parcel, open it and try to sell the strips... End of the story. Thanks for your comments. Maurizio

What an awesome acquisition! I do believe this was the one illustration that I had seen in a pic of Alex Raymond's studio hanging up, so cool!

As I wrote in the description, I knew that 4 of these illustrations were hung in Raymond's studio. Didn't know which one ! But, thanks to Thomas comment I start searching and I've found this additional picture and... it was amazing to see my piece right there, on the wall of Raymond' studio ! So... thank you Thomas for your comment that suggested me to search....

MANDRAKE & C.

Comment posted on 1/17/2009
You're in good company. The same happened with the covers by Karel Thole for the italian Sci-Fi magazine "Urania". Since the original artworks were scanned se they could well be destroyed. That's to say: the copy is more important than the original ! And this is what we have to expect with the digital point of view...

The GOLDEN ARROW
Owner: Roy Mann

Comment posted on 1/11/2009
We must say that in Italy we were very lucky during the 60s. If you were familiar with all those heros of the 30s, like Flash Gordon, Mandrake, Tim Tyler's luck, Brick Bradford and The Phantom, you had plenty of choice with many comic book series with fantastic colorful covers realised by this great artist still almost unknown: Mario Caria. They really added a hint of fascination to the stories, and it was a pleasure to collect such comic books.

MANDRAKE & C.

This is striking ! Layout is perfect and also perfect is the Fredricks' Mandrake style. I had this cover. At the time I was familiar with this series, but I'd like to find the original artwork for it!

Tarzan by Hal Foster
Owner: Ronald Fraser

Comment posted on 2/22/2008
The panel is a very beutiful one, with all it needs to have in it: Tarzan, the ape, the jungle with its inhabitants and a sign of the civilised world, the airplane. Very good one ! About a complete Foster sunday... do not desperate. World is half to sell and half to buy. When I was a kid I dreamed about to complete my comic-book series. I thoght that world was all in there. And I never suspected that once I could posses at least one original art. Now I have hundreds, mostly vintage ones. So, it's just a matter of time. Everything will happen.
