1943 TARZAN SPARKLER COMICS #20 ORIGINAL PRODUCTION ART PAGE BURNE HOGARTH ERB For Sale

This is an original printed production art page for Sparkler Comics #20, which was published in March of 1943. This is Pg. 37 from the issue, and features the legendary Sunday Newspaper comic strip Tarzan by Edgar Rice Burroughs. It is a fantastic page with classic fighting images, and Tarzan featured in multiple panels on the page! The piece measures approximately approximately 7\" by 9 3/4\" and is on smooth coated paper stock. It is in very good condition with small staple holes at the top corner edge, a slightly angled cut at the top, and the page has a pencil notation at the bottom right corner indicating the issue and page number. It is blank on the reverse side. This is NOT a mass-produced print or lithograph. It is a production art page that is created during the production process for the comic, and used internally by the comic company. This is a very cool and rare piece of comic production art that you will hardly ever get a chance to see (but please note this is a printed production art page, it is not the hand-drawn original artwork). Considering the cost of original art for Tarzan Sundays from this time period, this is a much more reasonable way to own a piece of production art from one of the greatest strips in American history. This is an outstanding piece that would look fantastic framed and prominently displayed, and would be a key piece in the collection of any fan of the legendary Jungle man.

Please note that this is an authentic piece from the 1940\'s, not something made for a later reprint or collection book. We have been told there are reprint production art pieces being listed by other sellers that make them seem to be old and from original printings, even though they are not (for example, older production art did not have the words on a separate sheet from the images. Those kinds of things were only done much more recently, using computer technology). We advise buyers to be careful, as there are disreputable sellers tricking many people into believing they are purchasing items that are older and more valuable than what they actually are. Some sellers simply do not state their items are from reprints, while others make very long listings and put a tiny mention about reprints buried deep in the listing, and/or use a hard-to-read font color (like yellow) to prevent buyers from seeing this information. Unfortunately, everything else in the listing (the title, pictures of the cover of the comic from the 1st printing, etc.) makes you think you are buying something from an original printing, and has allowed this to continue despite many buyers saying that they have been taken for a ride and ripped off. This item is a genuine piece from the \'40\'s, not something made for a reprint. We clearly differentiate items from original printings and items from reprints, so you can buy with confidence.
