AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
This lot comes from the archives of the publisher “Dupuis,” which printed in 1964 this issue 16 Gag de Poche for a well-known adventure among collectors: the Doctor DOXEY’s elixir.
Produced on a small A5 format (approximately 27 cm by 11 cm), this board features Morris’s characters specially printed on glossy paper, then these bromides were cut to create the panels, with sometimes a touch of India ink to complete a character or a speech balloon or a decorative element as in this board.
Notably, here, exceptionally, the TOP AND BOTTOM OF THE BIG PANEL WERE DRAWN BY MORRIS IN INK.
Above the board one can see the upper part of the stagecoach drawn by Morris, as well as the little character running above the speech bubble “I’ll teach you how to mind your own onions…”.
The bottom of the large panel also shows two barrels, also redrawn by Morris.
With a backstamp reading “gag de poche, page 80, GAG DE POCHE N o 16, …” affixed on the special DUPUIS paper, with a blue frame, this lot is an authentic time witness created by Morris in his flagship series LUCKY LUKE.
Ideal lot to enhance a fine collection of old comics and to be the subject of a nice framing.
The panels were glued in the last strip, which explains this very nice color variation compared with the color left white of bromides of the glossy photographic paper.
Shipped by registered mail.
