Pennyroyaltea89 Posted January 7, 2021 Share Posted January 7, 2021 Hi I'm a newbie at collecting comic art and wondered if you guys could help me. Now before posting I did read up on transparencies and with that asked the seller if the back board/paper had anything on to which he said yes... it looks like a direct transfer from the acetate to the paper and just wanted you opinions if they are original ink drawings from the comic production process or are they just because of age and have printed from the acetate to the paper. Please let me know and thanks in advance for your help Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Artboy99 Posted January 8, 2021 Share Posted January 8, 2021 (edited) difficult to tell from a picture on the internet. looks to me like inking was done on a bristol page, and for storage they have placed a piece of vellum over the original art. A copy of the original art was made on acetate which is placed over top of the vellum which is over the original art so it can be viewed/ displayed. This explains the double images seen in some of the pics. Are they the original? At this stage it is possible. As these are likely to be pricey pages it might be worth seeing them in person to get a better idea. Edited January 8, 2021 by Artboy99 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
