Pg. 1; Jack Kamen pencils and inks; 11" x 19"; "Second Childhood" story

EC was the gold standard for illustration amongst 1950s comic publishers. Bill Gaines stuffed his titles with practically every great artist then working in the field. Among them, the reliable Jack Kamen, whose deft lines and classical sense anchored many an outlandish EC tale. This example of his sterling work comes from an early issue of Weird Fantasy, and shows how his smooth inks and effortless style draws the reader in and establishes mood and pace with startling economy. ECs are enjoying a resurgence in popularity and art from the legendary publisher is avidly sought by serious collectors. We expect this piece to attract much attention, and deservedly so.
