AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Jan van Haasteren began his career at the Grijseels advertising agency, after which he got a job at Nijgh & Van Ditmar. Working as Loek van Delden’s assistant on the comic strip Smidje Verholen, Jan made his debut as a comic artist. His career as a comic artist really took off when he started working at the Marten Toonder Studios. Jan moved to Geesink Studio, where he joined the Geesink Artists department and worked on Rick de Kikker. He also continued to work as a freelancer for Toonder Studios. In 1967, he became a freelance artist and worked from home. Jan contributed to comic strips such as Kappie and Tom Poes. Van Haasteren also drew many comic strips for Donald Duck, including the Big Bad Wolf, Donald Duck, Ketelbinkie and Hiawatha. His own work also began to receive more attention during this period. Jan worked with many people and drew a great many comic strips and advertising posters. His work is extensively documented in the book “Jan van Haasteren: From Comic Artist to Puzzle Phenomenon.” In 2006, Jan was awarded the ‘Bulletje en Boonestaak Scale’ by Het Stripschap, and in 2013 he was appointed Knight of the Order of Orange-Nassau.
For the comic magazines Sjors and Eppo, Jan brought Tinus Trotyl to life. Tinus Trotyl has an obsessive love of explosions; one of his characteristic sayings is: ‘Less talk, more bangs.’ The comic is considered one of the first Dutch family comics. It led Jan to start drawing posters, which ultimately gave rise to the world-famous Jan van Haasteren jigsaw puzzles.
Drawing size (paper dimensions): 30 x 17 cm.
Original work by Jan van Haasteren is rare and seldom offered for sale. This is especially true of his early work, almost all of which was lost in the fire at the Marten Toonder Studios in the early 1970s.
Lot information;
This lot contains a beautiful, original sketch of the Big Bad Wolf from the early 1970s. It is fully worked out and ready to be inked. It offers a pure display of artist Jan van Haasteren’s craftsmanship. This is extremely rare material, of which almost nothing has survived and none is in circulation. This early work was lost in the fire at the Marten Toonder Studios in the early 1970s. Before being offered here, this beautiful drawing was kept in a private collection for more than 45 years. A unique opportunity for the discerning collector.
The drawing will be very carefully packaged and sent by registered mail to its new owner.
