Description
Classics Illustrated #142 Abraham Lincoln Painted Cover Original Art (Gilberton, 1958). This wonderful piece depicts the future president as a strapping young man preparing to wrestle with a rival. The artwork was extended an additional 2.5" at the bottom, with a painted paper overlay (cut into the shape of grass), covering the joined extension. The overall effect of this addition is rather unique, giving a three-dimensional quality to the foreground foliage. The artwork is on heavy illustration board and has an image area of 14.25" x 20.75". There is masking tape indicating the border of the image area, and extended at the bottom as noted, the piece is otherwise in Very Good condition.Lookup the Comic Book in our Guide
