Title: The Magnificent Sanjulian!!!
Post by: Illoman on June 04, 2009, 02:54:03 PM
I just came across this on Sanjulian's web site, and almost cried it's so beautiful!!! I'm sorry it's so small. It's for sale, but I doubt my wife would let me mortgage the house to buy it.

He painted covers for FM, Creepy, Vampirella  and Eerie.

Enjoy!!

 That is indeed a beautiful find Mike.  I've enjoyed his artwork for years on the Warren covers, and have his Trading Cards.  I'd love an original Sanjulian, but I also like having a roof over my head.  Still, that is a remarkable masterpiece.  Thanks for sharing this unique treasure.

When you're done salivating, join me in a chorus of "We're not worthy!"

He is just an incredible artist!!

 Now that I see it in even greater detail....WE ARE NOT WORTHY.  A beautiful find, hate to imagine what an original Sanjulian even goes for.  This would have made an incredible FM cover, back when he was doing art for Warren.

I believe it is going for 9000 euros, whatever that translates to.

Here's where I found the scan, plus *tons* of great Sanjulian art, including his renderings of Uncle Creepy and Cousin Eerie:

  Is that before or after the trade-in on your soul.  I knew it wouldn't be cheap, but I was thinking about around 4 to 8 thousand.  Karen would never let me live long enough to see it arrive.   ;D
