EDD CARTIER THE KNOWN AND THE UNKNOWN

The first collection of fantasy art by a master illustrator with emphasis on reproduction of work for Unknown, Astounding, and the 1949 and 1950 Gnome Press calendars. Edd Cartier was a highly regarded and influential artist from the 30s to the 60s, most famous for his work on The Shadow and John W. Campbell’s Astounding and Unknown magazines. He had a humorous and fluid style, equally adept at seemingly effortless figure drawing, creature design, and hardware. Edited by his son Dean, this book is a retrospective of his work. Cartier was the recipient of the 1992 World Fantasy Lifetime Achievement Award. Out of Print. Condition: Fine Minus. Moisture damage to all of the pages (warping). Also a small amount of water stain at the edges of the cover.
