Description
BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Seuling, Phil (Organizer). 1978 Comic Art Convention Program. Featuring The Studio (Jones, Kaluta, Windsor-Smith, Wrightson). 1978.
This lot consists of an original softcover official program for the 1978 Comic Art Convention. The front cover features a vertical four-panel artwork layout by the influential artist collective known as The Studio, including Jeffrey Jones, Michael William Kaluta, Barry Windsor-Smith, and Berni Wrightson. The top illustration panel bears the printed initials B.W. for Berni Wrightson. The program serves as a promotional vehicle for the artists, notably featuring a central two-page spread advertisement (pages 32 and 33) for the publication of The Studio art book by Dragon’s Dream, scheduled for release in October 1978. This advertisement credits text to Richard Boeth and photographs to Sean Smith. The rear cover contains a full-page color advertisement for Warren Publishing’s science fiction anthology magazine, 1984. The program is printed on paper stock with illustrated wrappers and originally retailed for $3.00.
Condition report:
The program is in good vintage condition. The pictorial wrappers show light edge wear, minor corner softening, and subtle creasing along the spine and cover margins. The interior pages remain clean and securely bound, exhibiting mild toning consistent with age. No internal markings, stamps, or signatures are present.
