Description:
Frank Frazetta Durango Kid #14 Dan Brand and Tipi Page 2 Original Art (ME, 1951). The White Indian, Dan Brand, is headed for a "Voyage into Danger" in this beautiful and dramatic page. This is from one of the sought-after, but rarely offered Frank Frazetta ME stories of his youth. The image area of this masterwork measures approximately 12.5" x 18", and aside from two paste-over areas in panel three, it's in Excellent condition.

Frazetta, Frank:Frank Frazetta (American, b. 1928): An artistic prodigy, Frank Frazetta broke into comic books at the age of 16 out of economic necessity. A series of landmark Buck Rogers covers for Famous Funnies and several outstanding EC jobs brought Frazetta to the attention of comic strip artist Al Capp, and he was soon hired to assist on the Li'l Abner Sunday strips from 1952-61. By the time that Frazetta had quit working for Capp, the comic book market had atrophied and his freelance opportunities had all but dried up. Frazetta was forced into the illustration market at large, and it proved to be a blessing in disguise. After creating a series of well-received movie posters and paperback covers, Frazetta's fortune was secured when he painted his world-famous paperback covers for Robert E. Howard's Conan character. A string of spectacular covers for Warren Publishing's titles Creepy, Eerie, and Vampirella added to his success. Frank Frazetta is now widely regarded as the master of modern fantasy art..
