DESCRIPTION
Matt Baker pencils and inks (attributed); page 31; 1952; image size 12" x 18"This Tiger Girl story was reprinted, likely form an issue of Fight Comics from the 1940s, the panels were cut out and rearranged so that the story could be reconfigured. The original story is most likely Baker with the assistance of other studio artist, the new art created around the pasted in images is definitely the work of an unknown artist from the time of the reprinting. ALL of the art on the page is original. Pen and ink. Art is in very good condition.
