Description

Roy G. Krenkel Sheet of Tarzan Preliminary Sketches Original Art (c. 1962). An associate of such industry legends as Wally Wood, Frank Frazetta, and Al Williamson during the 1950s, Roy G. Krenkel quickly made his mark on the illustration field and was hired to provide covers for a series of Ace paperbacks that reprinted stories by Edgar Rice Burroughs and others in the early 1960s. The piece offered here is a sheet of blue pencil studies of Tarzan, once in the collection of Frank Frazetta. Krenkel perfectly captures the mood and the movement of the moment, ushering us into a very different world. A note of provenance is included with this lot, from Robert Pistella manager of the Frazetta estate, that reads in part, "Frank gifted me the Roy Krenkel art... I guarantee that it is an original work by Krenkel and was part of the art collection of Frank Frazetta." Drawn in blue pencil on paper, this piece measures 8.5" x 11", and it's in Excellent condition. Not signed.
