From the collection of John Workman (Art Director from January 1978 to September 1984), this 8 by 10 3/4 inch page is affixed with tape to a 10 by 14 inch sheet. Used as a promo (house ad) to promote legendary comic creator Bernie Wrightson's Captain Sternn (which first appeared in Heavy Metal), it is in excellent condition overall with only minor storage wear. It will be shipped with the utmost care. It is signed by hand on its reverse side by Workman. Please note- the signature is real. It is the actual, hand-signed signature of Workman. it is not a pre-printed image on the proof.
Excepting pack-pulled autograph trading cards, CGC Signature Series, signed Sideshow prints, and like collectibles, all autographed items Vault Collectibles sells were personally witnessed, by myself, being signed by the writer, artist, or celebrity in question. No third party is involved. Further, art sketches - and most published original art I sell - were obtained directly from the artist themselves.
