Item Description
8.5x11" drawing paper has graphite pencil preliminary original art layout for page 1 splash of The Human Torch #8. Timely Comics, Summer 1942 issue. Attributed to artist Harry Sahle but as Carl Burgos did the story for the previous issue, it was thought he may have done this art as well. Art is unsigned. Typewritten description at top and layout reflects a what if question of the villain (The Python) taking front and center of the first page instead of the layout that was published with The Human Torch battling The Sub-Mariner being the focus. Lt. aging/wear to paper. A few chips at lower left corner. Displays VG. Classic Golden Age artwork.
