The insidious feline watches, plotting, through the key hole, much more diabolical than any mere grumpy cat! CLASSIC SANHO KIM! The Cat finally lets loose a ferocious attack, catching a hapless comic-art collector off guard. This piece wasbeautifully rendered, and would be ideal to frame andhang on a wall, shelf, or desk; A conversation piece of the highest order.(You could pick up a copy of the old comic book, to display along with it!) The incredible attention to detail becomes apparent when it\'s viewed in person.Nicepiece. A color guide would often merely have enough of the color, splashed in a haphazard fashionin a particular area, to show the printer what color to use where. This one has a lot of attention to detail and different media, including watercolor and/or marker, colored pencil, conte, pastels, crayon.Issues of this cult-classic title from during this part of this beloved eraweren\'t always done by someone this adept, such as Sanho Kim, who handled the pencils and inks on this particular cover, which were xeroxedonto art paperso they could belavishly colored by hand, creating this unique work. This actual item was submitted by Charlton Comics to the printer in1977 to produce the front cover to thepopularcomic-book, which was cover-dated November, 1977.This gorgeous artwork is a perfect addition to anybody\'s art collection, and is more awesome than the famous comic cover that it produced... It is quite striking! This would be a great addition to any collection ofcomic-art or black cat ephemera or the Horror Comic fan\'s collection... --\'Nuff said!Many of you have read about cover production art in C.B.M. and/or C.B.G.
(Comic Book Marketplace #85 or Comics Buyer\'s Guide #\'s 1399, 1402, 1414, etc.)We are secure packagers and prompt shippers so expect to be pleased.Back in the \"good ole days\",most publishersnormally burned ordiscarded such production art once the comic went to print. However, about a decade backI was able to obtain some prime examples of Charlton production art, representing each step of the comics\' cover-making process! This is the actual Hand-Colored Cover Art for the fan-favorite comic. It was painted in mixed media; Only one such showpiece was created per cover...Additional pieces can now be found by checking the other Key Comics sales. Buy itquickly, as such items are truly one-of-a-kind, and Charlton cover production pieces as a whole are notoriously rare. Hand-colored Silver-age & Early-Bronze Covers are exceedingly rare in the market, and very impressive, as you can see brushstrokes and color variations, in some cases desired by the creator, which never make it to the final product... They are significantly larger than comic-size, at 8.5\" wide and about a foot tall. Because they were part of the original raw artistic process, they can include tack-holes, pasteovers, tape, indentations from a paper clip, tears, staple-holes, white-out, and/or edge wear. This one has some discoloration and dings and indentations, but no huge problems; in the protective polybag it looks great, and must be seen in person to be appreciated.Bone-white whites and nice rich colors, obviously very well preserved for posterity! This is a must-have piece for any fan of ultra-rare original art, or for thesupernatural comic & art collector, or the serious feline memorabilia buff, or just theart fan who doesn\'t have four-figure$ to drop on a b/w cover but still enjoys owning true rarities ~ to keep himself satisfied visually, while keeping his portfolio diversified in a most dramatic fashion!As Usual: LOWBUY IT NOWAND !
