Description
Bob Powell - All-New Comics #5 Complete 8-page Story "Torpedoes For Dessert" Original Art (Harvey, 1943). Ernie the submarine cook may be a screwball, but his quick thinking saves his crew's bacon in this wild and wooly Bob Powell yarn. Although billed as a "Martin Epp Feature," this art was drawn by Bob Powell. Howard Nostrand described the inner workings of the Bob Powell shop in Graphic Story Magazine #16. "There were three of us working for Powell when I started with him; at one point he had five assistants, but his best work was done when he had the original three. They were George Siefinger, who did backgrounds; Martin Epp, who inked, lettered and helped George on backgrounds. I started out out inking and helped George on backgrounds and then pencilling. Marty generally took care of the cleaning up, erasing, and whiting out the mistakes and brushstrokes that went over the borders." The image area of each page measures 13" x 18". There are numerous touches of white-out used to correct the art; otherwise, the pages are in Very Good condition.Lookup the Comic Book in our Guide
