Description
Will Eisner - Okay Comics Tommy Tailspin Cover Original Art (1937). Hal Forrest's aviator hero Tommy Tailspin barnstorms out of his newspaper strip to star on this sensational Golden Age comic book cover by Will Eisner. A collector would be hard-pressed to find an earlier Eisner cover than his Okay Comics covers! Will Eisner later signed this cover in blue ballpoint pen at the upper left of the image. The image area of the piece is 15" x 21.5". Aside from the board, which shows slight signs of aging, and some old pieces of cellophane tape, which were used to affix the logo, the art is in Excellent condition.More information about Will Eisner.
