Description
Murphy Anderson Justice League of America #22 JLA/JSA Team-Up Cover Original Art (DC, 1963). For the second part of the first ever JLA/JSA team-up, Murphy Anderson reworked his own cover design for Mystery In Space #18 from 1954. This cover features the Green Lanterns of two Earths attempting to free heroes from both Earths. Earth-1 Roll-Call: GL (Hal Jordan), Wonder Woman, Flash (Barry Allen), Martian Manhunter, and Green Arrow! Earth-2 Roll-Call: GL (Alan Scott), Black Canary, Flash (Jay Garrick), Hawkman, and Doctor Fate! Created twice-up scale in ink over graphite on Sparta cover stock Bristol board with an image area of 12.5" x 18.5". The DC bullet is printed on the cover stock board, but the thought balloon and lower caption are paste-up hand-lettered text pieces. The logo is a modern-day replacement that is a bit big for the image area. Some of the other trade dressing paste-ups are missing, leaving a bit of glue residue. We have often wondered why the Golden Age Green Lantern was pictured on the published cover with a modern-day logo on his chest, when his logo is the old-fashioned train lantern. Looking at this original art, it can been seen that the original lantern logo was covered with white paint and redrawn to be more modern. Toned and in Very Good condition. Comes with a black and white stat of the final cover, which has a hand-written note on the reverse from DC Editor Julius Schwartz.More information about Murphy Anderson.
