Item Description
5.75x5.75" sheet of thin artboard has original bw pen and ink artwork w/image area measuring 1.75x2" and this art has paste-on for the "Famous Artist Syndicate" copyright while the name on the button has been hand-lettered. Minor glue streak on top back margin, lt. trace of aging on front but art is Exc. In addition to this, there is a separate 5.75" square sheet of translucent parchment-like paper w/blue/fleshtone colors which, when placed over the bw art, provides the colors for the finished button. All four margins of this sheet are mounted w/.25" wide strips of double-sided tape to slightly larger sheet of clear acetate. Paper has quite a few thin ripple lines but these do not detract visually. 1/8" dia. water droplet just to the left of his head on the blue bkg. Art is o/w clean. Comes w/example button as well. Art is unique. This is a file copy from the archives of premium creators Sam & Gordon Gold accompanied by a letter to this effect from Gordon Gold.
