Russ Heath - Original Cover Art for All American Men of War #112 (DC, 1965). The wash and ink cover displays Russ Heath's talents the dynamic depiction of combat. The wash technique was used on a limited number of DC comic covers and was designed to allow the colorist to give a more "painterly" feel to printed comic. This is the cover for the first appearance of Balloon Buster, a Word War I fighting ace who went on to be a continuing character in DC war comics. Condition of the page is exceptional with no white-out. The title logo was also penciled and inked by Heath since this was the start of Balloon Buster; subsequent covers will have a stat of the logo. Only a fraction of the pre-1966 DC original art has survived so if you are looking for an example of it you would be hard pressed to find a better one. Overall page and image size is approximately 13"x 19". Important notice: We expect to be auctioning lots at the rate of 200-250 per hour.
