Description
Austin Briggs - Flash Gordon Daily Comic Strip Original Art, dated 11-29-41 (King Features Syndicate, 1941). Few artists could match the heroic draftsmanship of Alex Raymond, but one who came mighty close was Austin Briggs. After he left the comic strip field, Briggs became a dominant force in magazine and advertising illustration. This early Flash Gordon daily was drawn only a year and a half after the daily's debut. and it reflects the building drama of World War II - the attack at Pearl Harbor happened only a week after this strip was published! The image area of this daily measures 20" x 5.5," and aside from some very mild paper aging, the art is in Excellent condition.Auction Info
