Frank Frazetta's White Indian – Six Original Artwork Pages at Auction
It's Frank Frazetta time. Bleeding Cool has run many articles looking at pieces of original comic book artwork up for auction. But the auction from Heritage may be their most significant comic book auction to date with some insanely valuable, desirable, and influential examples of original comic book artwork. And their Frank Frazetta pages are to die for, covers, preliminary artwork, and including ink work from Charles Starett As The Durango Kid, comic book, and six consecutive pages from his White Indian strip – and no, that wouldn't be published today, obviously. But it was in 1949, and all six pages below are up for auction, and end on Thursday, the 17th of June.
