True, but not NEARLY as cool looking, Ed. 🙂

I thought that was an excellent question!!! So I asked on the Frank Brunner & Friends Facebook page. It was penciled and inked totally by Frank Brunner, Mind you, he did use zipatone which was normal to do back then.

WOW!! Jesse you are the man. I didn't know what "zipatone" was so I looked it up. Very interesting that he was the artist AND inker. I wonder if he did it that way to get paid for both or if he didn't trust the inkers with his work. Either way he did a fantastic job!! Thank you Jesse.

@Rafel part of the reason I like to collect older original art is just to see the pencil or pen marks and the different things they did to produce the pages. The first time I saw zipatone being used, it amazed me. Such a simple solution for something that is tedious and time consuming.

I took a Cartography course in grad-school in the early 1980’s. We learned how to use Rapidograph pens and about various shading techniques. To save time shading large areas, instead of hand-shading (very difficult to perfectly space dots or hash lines) you could cut out pre-made designs called Zipatone. I remember that you needed a steady hand with an X-Acto knife to try to cut out the design to fit perfectly in the space you wanted, and applying it wasn’t easy either. Those experiences make me appreciate this artwork even more. And I also agree the original drawing is more dramatic and appealing than the published colored image.
