Will Eisner's clever graphic solution
to the challenge of doing numerous "wraparound" covers
results in an unusually nice composition. In this bifurcated
cover to Spirit Magazine #24, The Spirit in boxing
trunks watches bemusedly as the boxer Winthrop Boombershlag
(from the featured 3/23/41 Spirit story) punches his way
through the brick wall forming issue 24's spine. Beautiful watercolor
painting measuring 23" wide and 16.5" high. Signed
and dated May 1980.
Price:
$8,000.
