Description: LINE ART: RARE COVER For Scary Tales! This Auction Includes: SCARY TALES #46 (BUT NOTE IT WAS ORIGINALLY USED IN A SLIGHTLY DIFFERENT FORM AS THE COVER FOR GHOSTLY TALES #106 IN 1973); THIS WAS RE-SIZED AND MOVED AROUND A BIT, TO FORM A NEW COVER FOR SCARY TALES IN 1984, BUT IT'S MAINLY STATS, NOT ORIGINAL WORK, ALTHOUGH OF COURSE SOME WHITE PAINT AND INK WORK WAS ADDED, TO MAKE IT LOOK RIGHT FOR THE DIFFERENT LOGO AND TO ACCOMODATE A UPC BOX AND SO ON. IT DISPLAYS THE ORNATE DETAIL WORK THAT MAKES THE TENTACLED MONSTROSITY SEEM TO COME TO LIFE, WHAT A MASTERPIECE! This piece is a massive 12" x 19" and it's a tremendous stand-alone work of art, worthy of prominent display in any collection. GREAT ATTENTION TO DETAIL. Published horror artwork, originally drawn by the prolific artist in 1973, but this version was used in the early eighties, the talent and proficiency is clearly evident, this is a real showpiece! NOTE: We have many other pieces of comic art running on ebay now! Some of you long-term collectors have dealt with us in the pre-bay years through our many ads in C.B.M. and Combo and Wizard and C.B.G. (Comic Book Marketplace and Comics Buyer's Guide, CVM, etc.) More recently, we've been on ebay since the nineties, and we are secure packagers and prompt shippers so expect to be pleased. Additional comic art can now be found by checking the Key Comics ebay store (user ID: keycomics). Buy it now, as such items are truly one-of-a-kind. It's in attractive shape, and remains supple and well preserved. Most of it is photocopies and zip-a-tone, pasted together to create a 'new' occult cover, but it IS what was used to create the cover, so it's very historic and would be awesome framed. Please examine all of the pictures, sorry they don't do it justice; I am a poor photographer. One photo shows it next to a random comic for scale, but no comics are included.
