Gothic girls' comic art (1966), Ghost Wedding. Paint on large board. With comic.

£75 · Offered by eBay

This is an original, one of a kind, hand drawn and painted page of art, published in 1966. It is not a print or any other sort of a copy. Also included is the comic. Large, hand drawn and painted storyboard page by British illustrator Clive Uptton (1911-2006). It was used for publication in the March 19th 1966 issue of Princess magazine for a story titled 'The Marriage of Ghosts'. This artwork is painted on thick artists' board and features some great ghostly panels. This was the last instalment of this particular story. As far as I can tell the paints used are watercolour/gouache, possibly with some inks. Condition: The artwork is in really great condition. The comic has some wear and tear but still pretty good condition. Feel free to request further info/scans. Art will be sent in a polypropylene art sleeve and flat packed in new corrugated cardboard packaging (see last picture) with additional internal protection (bubble wrap or polystyrene). I can post to UK, Europe (apart from Italy), USA, Canada and Australia. However, Ebay control the postage costs. If the postage is showing as excessive in your country let me know and I may be able to do something about it.
