Offered here is Millar's original art for the cover to DRAG Cartoons #44, published Oct. 1967. This is a the first DRAG Cartoons cover art to come up for auction.

Artboard has some moderate corner tip and has staple holes at corners and along top margin w/strips of aged masking tape across top/bottom margins. Artboard is Fine overall, but main image area retains vivid color and would make for Exc. display if matted and framed. Comes w/reading copy of the issue this cover art was created for.
