Part of the story arc “Heros The Spartan: The Island of Darkness" with story by Tom Tully and art by Frank Bellamy. This two page centrefold story is episode 12 of this 19 part story. An installment of the ongoing saga “Heros the Spartan” created by Frank Bellamy in ink and watercolour over graphite on a single sheet of illustration board. Signed by Frank Bellamy in the ninth panel bottom right. With multi-coloured watercolour narration boards.
This artwork is framed with a wooden frame under glass. Framed by The Newton Gallery in Newton Abbot. The back is taped down and we cannot confirm the quality of the edges without damaging the frame. The board itself is slightly toned, some marks have transferred from the art to the glass, line to the speech bubble in the fifth panel, some fade to the letter in the speech bubble in the ninth panel, and overall in good condition.
Provenance: a friend of the vendor worked at IPC Magazines and gifted these artworks to the vendor.
