Popular author and illustrator (born 1928) of such children’s classics as Where the Wild Things Are and In the Night Kitchen. Gigantic original signed felt tip sketch of an unhappy man waving from inside a pot or kettle on an off-white 30 x 40 piece of fairly thick posterboard. Signed in the lower right corner in red felt tip by Sendak. In very good condition, with tear to bottom edge, some scattered creases, missing top right corner, and scattered toning, spotting, and soiling. Sketch was originally from the estate of Stanley Cohen, an agent for comic illustrators. Quite possibly the largest Sendak sketch ever made.
