AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Album "Felle Flitsen" with drawing in book
The book Felle Flitsen was an initiative by Silvio of the then Stripwinkel Sylvester to start an annual Comics Week with a matching gift. I supplied rarely commercial comic work; the title played on the firework effect of advertising work: a quick bright flash, then darkness. In contrast to narrative work that yields results over years.
But there exists, as I note here in this drawing as a footnote, sometimes also a mutual influence between advertising work and authors' stories; the design of the ATLANTIS is basically based on the chrome hood ornament of the Pontiac 1955-56, which I had previously drawn for Philips Magazine. That 1955-dated visual successor to the ornamented radiator cap grew into a highly stylized aircraft, but was in principle already a form from the storytelling period of what, at the time, was a future form.

The winner of this lot also receives, for this auction in an edition of 150 unnumbered copies made, a special color print in A4 format, signed by Henk Kuijpers. The original of this print is also in this auction (see lot 150)
