Milton Caniff Terry & the Pirates Daily Art '37
<B>Milton Caniff - Terry and the Pirates Daily Comic Strip Original Art, dated 5-5-37 (Chicago Tribune, 1937).</B></I> The artistic interplay between Milton Caniff and Noel Sickles is evident in this melodramatic episode starring Normandie. Sickles' influence on Caniff was profound. The figures and backgrounds in <I>Terry</B></I> grew more realistic and heavily shadowed areas created a dramatic mood that quickly became a hallmark of action-adventure cartooning. The areas of blue ink wash were used to indicate to the engraver where to add a mechanical gray tone. The image area of the daily measures 20" x 5.5". There is a glue residue stain in the right and lower borders, mostly outside the art area; otherwise, the art is in Excellent condition. <BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Flat Material, Small (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
