More original art available now on Ebay. This week - BARGEARSE!


http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260257106248
This is the original pen and ink drawing by Dillon Naylor that was used on page three of the huge selling MARTIN/MOLLOY comic #3, 1998, based on the Tony Martin/Mick Molloy radio show. The image is a splash page for the story 'The Bargearse Christmas Special' and is crammed with tiny details and jokes. (As a trivia side note, the crowd scene features other characters from Dillon's comics including the cast of POP CULTURE AND TWO MINUTE NOODLES and DA 'n' DILL.) The drawing is about A3 in size on thick card with an image area of about 265 X 400 mm. (The drawing is pictured along side the printed page which has had computer grey tones added to it. The original drawing is black and white only.) There are some faint pencil construction lines and flicks of white paint that is normal with line art for photo reproduction. The original drawing is hand signed and comes with a mint condition copy of the printed comic book. Would look great framed in the pool room.
