Description

Don Martin - Mad #48, Complete 1-page Story "The Old Salt" Original Art (EC, 1959). His characters inhabited a surreal and often violent slapstick universe, and were victims of an endless variety of inventively disgusting fates. During his 30-odd years as a Mad contributor, Don Martin based his humor on misery and misfortune. His twisted approach and clean, vigorous line drawings influenced generations of younger cartoonists. The page consists of six panels mounted onto a larger sheet of illustration paper, with an image area of 15" x 17". There is some slight aging apparent, especially along the edges of the work (outside of the image area); otherwise the condition is Very Good.
