Description

Joe Simon and Jack Kirby Boys' Ranch #5 Prologue Splash Page Original Art (Harvey, 1951). The boys are waist-deep in adventure, as usual, in this sublime splash page from the next-to-last issue of Boys' Ranch. By this time, comic book great Mort Meskin was used as the primary artist on story pages, but Jack Kirby and Joe Simon still took the honors of doing the all-important splashes. This one is in india ink and light graphite on heavy illustration board, with an image area of approximately 12" x 18". The art has been well preserved in Joe Simon's collection all these years, and is in Excellent condition, save for a missing title logo stat, and a few handling marks along the outer margins. From the Joe Simon Estate.
