Description

Western Publishing Artist - Presidential Biography Page Original Art, Group of 108 (Western Publishing, circa 1962). The biographies of each of the United States Presidents from George Washington to John F. Kennedy are detailed in these handsomely rendered comic book pages. The page numbers include #1-3 and 8-112 of this unidentified Western Publishing title. Since little mention is made of the Kennedy assassination, the work may have been published before 1963, or perhaps it was even shelved because of JFK's shocking death. Each page is drawn with an illustrational drybrush style and there is no type on any of the pages, only a few editorial comments written in blue pencil. All but three of the pages have an image area of approximately 12" x 16.5". The first three pages (which are about George Washington) are smaller and have an image area of 9.25" x 13". Aside from a few art corrections/pasted-on panels that have slipped loose, the art averages Very Good condition. From the Random House Archives.
