Description

Johnny Craig Crime SuspenStories #5 Cover Original Art (EC, 1951). EC Comics knew they could always count on Johnny Craig to turn in an electrifying shocker of a cover! And this pre-Code cover is certainly no exception. This is one of the early 1950s cover that were produced at a scale slightly larger than standard twice-up scale. Created in ink with red ink keylines over graphite on EC Bristol board with an image area of 13.5" x 19.25". Signed by Craig in the lower right. The entire masthead and the cover caption box are stat paste-ups. The board is toned and in Very Good condition.
The Richard Pujol EC Art Collection.
