DESCRIPTION
A 15% BUYER'S PREMIUM WILL BE ADDED TO THIS ITEM AT CONCLUSION OF THE AUCTION
Sheldon 'Shelly' Moldoff art; The Spectre Strikes, final panel recreation; undated; image size 12" x 15"Wonderful re-creation of Bernard Baily's classic final panel from the story 'The Spectre Strikes' from More Fun Comics #53 from 1940 which featured the second part of the origin of The Spectre. Moldoff has repositioned the image a bit and added the More Fun Comics logo. One of the unsung heroes of the Golden Age, Sheldon "Shelly" Moldoff was a true journeyman artist, able to turn his considerable talents to any genre, hero, or title, all with unerring flair and graceful style. In the late 1980's and early 1990's, he finally received his due from rabid fans and collectors, and made a new career drafting stunning new commissioned pieces for art mavens. This is a wonderful, fully colored piece of art by a legend of comics' earliest days. Mixed media. Art is in excellent condition. Signed by Moldoff.
Attractively matted to 18" x 20.5".
Artist Information
