i am looking for help with identifying the year this created, how many Tiga dailes are there and looking for a scan of the version of this that was later published in a fanzine.

I can't help, but that is quite a beautiful piece

Nice brushwork on that one, Jeff!

 

(don't get any work done, leave the glue-stains)

A number of Tiga dailies were printed in the fanzine Squa Tront #2 (1968?) in the Frazetta Forever feature. I don't remember if there was any associated text. I will try to dig my copy out and check, but I probably won't be able to do that until after Christmas.

Fantastic! Looks very similar to his Thun'da work so I would guess that it's from the late 1940's or early 1950's.

AS ECFanMan has pointed out (along with Ray Cuthbert elsewhere), the TIGA dailies saw print in SQUA TRONT # 2, 1968 "The Frazetta Collector", by Bob Barrett).

 

A total of 12 dailies are featured in the SQUA TRONT fanzine. Yours is # 4.

 

Barrett says the strip was conceived by Frazetta in 1948 (not 1950, as erroneously reported in WITZEND).

 

As I'm without the use of a scanner for the time being, I'm not in a poisition to scan the three pages of TIGA strips for you, sorry . . .
