1969 DR. REX MORGAN, M. D. FRONT COVER ART FOR FETAL ALCOHOL GIVEAWAY
Item History & Price
| Reference Number: Avaluer:13746657 | Issue Number: #1 |
Offered is the Original Art for the FRONT COVER of the giveaway comic, "Think First of Your Unborn Child!" Rex Morgan, M.D., which was produced by Commercial Comics in 1969 for the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms. The copy, script and artwork was supervised by Dr. Nick Dallis, creator of the popular comic strip, Rex Morgan, M.D. This book was PRINTED IN BOTH ENGLISH AND SPANISH. The original artwork was printed with the original lettering in English, but a plastic overla...y was added for each page with the same wording in Spanish. This way the same book could be published in both English and Spanish in different press runs. The book tells the reader about the lasting and severe consequences on the unborn babies for women who drink alcohol during their pregnancies. But the good news is that these terrible after-effects, which last a lifetime, can be avoided through proper education (such as this comic book) and simply avoiding alcohol during pregnancies!
The Original Art for the FRONT COVER is exceptionally clean--a rarity for many fine pieces of art, especially for art work 50 years old! The page measures slightly larger than 11 1/2" x 14 1/2" and comes with a VF-NM copy of the original comic to be displayed next to your art work!
Note: The first picture shows the original art work with the Spanish overlay pulled up to show the English version, the second pic shows the Spanish overlay on top of the English version, and the third pic shows how the front cover artwork looks in the actual (English version) printed comic book, "Think First of Your Unborn Child!" Rex Morgan M.D.
