adamstrange Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 BZ, do you have any issues of Puck? Yes, I have a couple of hundred issues. I'll see what I can put my hands on and post some examples. Actually, my reason for asking is I recently picked up this original Ewer page from Puck (1914, as far as I can tell.) I was wondering if you might know which issue--I'd love to find a copy. Thanks. What a marvelous piece! Thanks, Adam. I found it in an art gallery in Portland, Oregon, while on vacation last month. They thought they had second piece by him, but couldn't find it. Anyway, since they quoted me a price that was about 1/5 of what I expected, I had to get it. Beautiful inkwork, evocative of Palmer Cox, and maybe a little bit of Rackham; and huge at 20 x 30. 20x30 is enormous! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird Paper Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 That truly is wonderful! Thanks, Matt and Jon. My wife found it behind some paintings leaning against a wall. She's about as disinterested in regular comic art as can be, but she liked this one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GACollectibles Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 While I am posting non-comics, here is a Norm Saunders Halloween cover from 1939 Nice cover, I've never seen it before. Here's one that might be new to you. Judge Magazine (October 31, 1925) Remined me of my recent Judge pickup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BB-Gun Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 Someone posted this photo of the pulp con and I borrowed the photo. Did anyone else attend? I thought I would post it here since a lot of pulp collectors and comic collectors check out BZ's thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BB-Gun Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 And this photo of David Saunders, while signing copies of his book about his Dad, Norm, was posted to by BollesBiggestfan. I have to get that book. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangZoom Posted September 2, 2009 Author Share Posted September 2, 2009 Dr Seuss produced the artwork for various advertising campaigns in the 1920's, 30's, and 40's.

BB-Gun Posted September 2, 2009 Share Posted September 2, 2009 (edited) These all belong to someone else but there were three photos of the convention. This one is of Dan Zimmer publisher of Illustration Magazine.

shiverbones Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 (edited) A little later, 1959, but a nice cover from a series of creepy books edited by Basil Davenport. These were offered in the Back of Famous Monsters in the early issues. Edited September 3, 2009 by shiverbones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rjpb Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Dr Seuss produced the artwork for various advertising campaigns in the 1920's, 30's, and 40's. Here are some glasses that were created for Standard Oil which feature his artwork. Neat stuff - the bottom one was clearly designed for adults - with the oz. measurements. An artifact from the days when promoting the consumption of booze was okay for promotional items unrelated to the liquor industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
