In Praise of Bama

[westform]

A few have asked if I was getting out of the hobby with all the selling

I've been doing... Good Lord no! Just selling some things to buy other

things. Like the following piece of eye candy! Thanks to fellow Doc

Savage fan Terry Allen for this incredible beauty!

Incredible!

 

Bama has always been one of my favorites. Have you ever seen his fine art western work? Amazing!

 

I wonder what an original to one of the Aurora Monster kit boxes would bring.

Yes, there's a fairly new book out titled something like Bama American Realist. Great book that showcases some of his western work that is breathtaking.... of course, it also shows every doc savage cover as well!

I've always loved Bama's work and especially the Doc Savage covers. Nobody did a better Savage cover than this guy.

 

Exceptional piece.
