THE WALLACE WOOD CHECKLIST
Released in conjunction with our trade paperback AGAINST THE GRAIN, the WALLACE WOOD CHECKLIST is the most thorough listing of Wood’s work ever published!
This fully-updated, definitive edition took more than 20 Wood experts over two decades to compile, and lists in exacting detail Woody’s
published comic work, including dates, story titles, page counts, and even documents the assistants who worked with him! It also includes his newspaper, advertising, and fanzine work, plus a myriad of more obscure Wood pieces such as gum cards, stickers, greeting cards, and more! Also included are listings of his unpublished work, direct from Bill Pearson, executor of Wood’s estate, who has access to Wood’s own files.
Plus, it’s profusely illustrated throughout with glorious Wood artwork! It’s a must-have item for the serious collector of Wood work!
This 68 page (64 pages plus a 4 page cover), saddle-stiched, comic book sized (7" x 10") magazine checklist with a four-color cover and a black & white interior retails for $5.95 in the U.S. and ships 24 September 2003.
