Item Description
11-1/8x14.75" thin artboard has Walt Kelly's pen and ink original art for page 27 of "Pogo Possum" #12, published by Dell Publishing in June 1953. Six-panel page shows Albert Alligator attempting to make bow w/pole and string, to comical effect. Churchy LeFemme appears in last panel w/gun, worried that Albert has lost his mind and is "Murderin' Some Beautiful Gal," mistaking Albert's sounds of frustration as an attack. Albert appears in first five panels, just his arm visible in last w/Churchy. Kelly's preliminary blue pencil art is visible and lower left has issue/page number inked. Top center has seven pin holes. Margins have some blue pencil editorial notations and left margin has slight trim, not affecting art, which remains Exc.
