The OFFICIAL "This week in your ORIGINAL ART collection?" 38 38

[zhamlau]

Had a nice acquisition this weekend. Full Splash from MTU 58, chocked full of bronze-y goodness. Its by Sal Buscema and Pablo Marcos. Great Sal look to the faces, man knows how to draw expressions. Condition was also on point, lot of stuff from the late 70s is so browned from glue and stats, I just find i want stuff thats all hand lettered to avoid that down the road.

 

 

 

Also picked this up this weekend just cause its never a bad time to buy a McSpidey.

Turning back the calendar 35 years....

 

Here's a vintage Defenders calendar plate with classic images of Dr. Strange, Hulk and Sub-Mariner published in Marvel's "The Occult World of Dr. Strange" 1980 calendar (released in 1979). Keith Pollard with sweeeeet Joe Sinnott inks on oversized 19" x 19" artboard.

Proud to add a Kirby page from Machine Man comics which I enjoyed reading as a sci-fi loving comics kid.

A Frank Brunner time capsule!

 

Back in 1975 Frank Brunner was selling off some of his original art as packages. According to the seller Frank sold 10 of these “packages”. This package #10 was bought in January of 1976. It included not only an original art page, but a layout of another page, a collection of Xeroxes of pencils, a hand-colored copy of a cover, a sketch, and signed copies of Doctor Strange 1-5.

A Brunner feast of art and an amazing purchase for this Doctor Strange fan. I am very excited to share the contents of this package:

 

Marvel Premiere #11 page 2. This issue had a 3 page framing sequence done by Brunner. This is one of the few Dr. Strange/Marvel Premiere pages drawn AND inked by Frank Brunner. It has been in a private collection since 1975 so unseen by most until now. mp11p2

 

 

Doctor Strange #2 page 6 original layout. I may have a layout from another package since I bought a layout of Dr. Strange #2, page 1 a few years ago and it also has a similar title and signature at the bottom. DrS2p6

 

5 Xeroxes of his pencils

Marvel Premiere #10 p. 2 mp10p2

Doctor Strange #2 p. 26 DS2p26

Doctor Strange #4 p. 2 - DS4p2

I was really, really blown away by Frank's Dr. Strange. Great to see these. Thanks. I have a more recent commission if you have interest in what he's doing lately.

Hey Bob, I am available to sign those adoption papers whenever you're ready.

I have extended my collection of Eduardo Barreto OA. They all hail from Gary Dolgoff in Easthampton, MA, who always asks a decent price for the stuff he has for sale

 

 

The Shadow Strikes! #6, page19 och Doc Savage #18, page 3.

 

 

Doc Savage #18, pages 12 & 14.

 

 

Doc Savage #18, pages 19 & 22.

 

 

Doc Savage #18, page 23.

 

To be able to fit twice as many pages in their schedule (this was at a time when delayed books were something scarce) Doc Savage artist Rod Whigham did the layouts, and Barreto finished the pencils and inks. And that's what he was really good at. I might have said it before but I think it runs a straight line from Caniff by Robbins and Jijé to Barreto?

 

I am not complaining that Barreto is still very underrated, that means I can afford more OA by him (Click on the pictures to see them in my Barreto gallery on CAF).
