<B>Ruben Moreira (attributed) - Whiz Comics #136, Complete 7-page Story "Golden Arrow and the Bird Men" Original Art (Fawcett, 1951).</B></I> Ruben Moreira's art style was a handsome blend of influences from Alex Raymond and Hal Foster's art. Thus, "Rubimor" was an ideal choice to draw <I>Tarzan</B></I> Sundays, and ghost Warren Tuft's <I>Casey Ruggles</B></I> strip. In this well drawn yarn, two owlhoots dress up as "bird men" in order to hornswoggle Chief Hawk out of his tribe's golden treasure. Golden Arrow breaks up the plot with his derring-do and archery skills. The image area of each page measures 13" x 18". There are a few panels with paste-over art corrections, and a few word balloons where the lettering corrections have slipped off; otherwise the art averages Very Good condition. Golden Arrow was a long running Fawcett feature and the heroic archer had a signature modus operandi -- he coated his arrowheads with gold leafing. Here's your chance to strike gold, with this rousing story. <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.
