Description

Thorn Tales From the Lantern #nn (Jeff Smith, 1983) Condition: FN+. Jeff Smith's Bone characters appeared in this collection years before the Bone comic book came out. This small-print rarity (just 1,000 copies were produced by one account) collects Smith's cartoons from the Ohio State University newspaper. These strips led directly to Smith creating his multi-award-winning comic book series, Bone. Jeff Smith cover and art. While CGC has encapsulated copies of this book in the past, at present they are currently not accepting copies for submissions due to the unusual format, therefore we are offering this copy uncertified. Not listed in Overstreet, but take note that a NM 9.4 copy sold in June of 2024 for a lofty $10,200! So look for some spirited bidding when this copy crosses our auction block.
