Item Description
22.5x27.5" simulated bamboo frame which compliments the finished pastel cover art of a bare-breasted female samurai w/sword. The finished art varies slightly from the artist's preliminary charcoal work, w/some additional bones added to the fallen skeleton warriors at the samurai's feet. Bright and bold. Great image. NM. 14.25x19.5" thin art paper has superbly-detailed charcoal original preliminary art. Art slightly trimmed along left and right edges but displays Exc. Comes with 8.5x10-7/8" "Dark Age" magazine from 1981 w/this cover art printed in full color. Hank Jankus (1929-1988) did 13 covers in his career w/this example being an amazing example.
