To be 100% honest, not sure on question #1? The size is less than 11 x17, maybe 11 x 15 or 14 but I will try to measure it out today if I have time.

I have a copy of this comic somewhere at home but I'm not there at the moment. I'm trying to Google this cover with no luck, can't believe it.

I believe this is a prelim to the Dell'Otto Euro Exclusive variant for Wolverine #40. It isn't a surprise that it is pencils only as I believe the cover was painted.

On the size I think the piece in the frame is just slightly smaller than my 11x 17 Itoya art portfolio as its sitting on top of it right now.

I found the eBay auction that I originally knew this from. It looks like the prelim itself is also published.

Thanks again as I was searching for that but couldn't find it either. I will post it in this thread so that it clarifies the above:

A full ORIGINAL prelim sketch for a published cover, This has a custom frame. Wolverine 40, the comic is also included.

This is a very special one. Please see the images to see the amazing Wolverine cover prelim sketch, and the actual published comic cover it was for (for reference), with an exclusive image from 'Marvel Secret Work Hard Back book'.

This is a full A4 pencil drawing with a background, which is also the published cover. 

This is indeed the actual prelim of the cover. Gab often pencil sketches out his covers, before taking them to the canvas. This is the case with this one.

And no, I did not pay $1k for it. 

[Silver Surfer]

I have to head out so I'm going to close this thread for now.

Just for future reference:

The frame is just shy of 16 and 3/4's long, 11 and 3/4 wide. The image is just shy of 14 x 9, I haven't taken it out of the frame.

[wurstisart]

It was listed as A4 paper, which is about 8.5 by 11.5.

[Silver Surfer]

I measured it at home with what I think was inches using a tape measure you see at a clothing store? I will try and post pics one day just so its accurate.
