Not Sold Description
Jack Davis - Vault of Horror #33, page 3 Original Art (EC, 1953). Jack Davis detailed this chilling page about a gang of kids' morbid fascination with crime and punishment. The tykes' mind-set seems to bother Frank Bundage, the local candystore owner who questions the gang's reading habits. Check out the comics rack shown in the final panel. There are copies of Mad and Tales from the Crypt on display, next to the newspaper. While the yarn was about the kids' own version of justice and capital punishment for a "crime," in a way this page foreshadows EC's own future troubles with the Senate Investigation, distributors, and the Comics Code Authority! The image area of the art is 13" x 18", and the art is in Excellent condition.More information about Jack Davis. See also: Davis, Jack, Jack B. Davis, Jack Burton Davis Artist.
