Original Art of Basil Wolverton , The
SKU: bkbasilwolverton
If you don’t know Basil Wolverton’s cartoons and artwork, then you’ve obviously never picked up anything published in the 1940s, 50s, or 60s, because Wolverton’s otherworldly creatures were all over those three decades. His features and caricatures appeared in Life and Pageant magazines. He was a regular contributor to early Mad magazine, did comic books, and even produced a story of the old testament that included more than 500 illustrations. He passed away in 1978 but his work remains an inspiration to generations of artists who discover him to this day. This book takes a look at Wolveron’s early work in the 1920s and 30s, and follows up through his “iconic days” of the 1940s through the 60s and even his commissioned work of the 60s and 70s. Hundreds of illustrations, comic book pages, and pencil sketches are reproduced! 9x12” hardcover book, 271 pages, with both color and B&W photos and illustrations throughout.
