This drawing was done by Neal Adams for a cover to a book about the British rock band The Who. The publisher decided to use a photo for the cover. This image was unpublished until it appeared on the cover of Comic Art Showcase #5, 1976 (from which this scan was made). The magazine was an original art catalog published by Tony Dispoto. The price for this piece was $1000.
A collection of comic and fantasy art plus artwork from the Golden Age of Illustration and whatever else sparks my interest.
