<B>Greg Irons - Slow Death #9 Cover Original Art (Last Gasp, 1977).</B></I> The late Greg Irons turns in a powerful explosion cover for this environmentally-relevant Underground title. The graphic designs by Irons were among the best of the UG crowd; the strong use of black ink reflects his interest in the tribal tattoo art of the Far East. In fact, it was while Irons was visiting Thailand, studying the tattoo masters of Bangkok, that he stepped off a busy curb and was killed by oncoming traffic. At any rate, his work has a sense of power that comes across fully in this well-known piece, which measures approximately 14.5" x 20.5". A small amount of white-out has flaked off along the top right corner, above the dollar bill art, which reveals a few unused lines; otherwise this piece is in Excellent condition. Included with this lot is a copy of <B>Slow Death</B></I> #9. 2 items <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
