Occasionally copies of the deluxe leatherbound editions of Tomorrow Revisited crop up for sale. For those with deep enough pockets to be able to afford them one of the highlights is surely the unique original Don Harley painting that accompanies each volume.
I thought it would be a fun project to log the examples of these Harley paintings whenever one comes up for sale.
So, this is the book you're looking for...
A full colour illustrated biography of Frank Hampson, with the best of his original artwork finally printed as it was meant to be seen!
The book is crammed with superb examples of Hampson's best work, printed in full colour from original art boards, so you can see all the amazing detail and painstaking backgrounds Hampson was so good at creating.
After he completed 'The Road of Courage', Hampson went on to create seven other strip cartoon characters, intended for Eagle. Now these amazing strips are printed for the first time, together with backgrounds of how they were drawn and some of the intended story-lines.
This Deluxe Leatherbound Edition - numbered 35 - features the Certificate of limited availability (100 copies worldwide) and is signed by Alastair Crompton, Peter Hampson, Andrew Skilleter & Don Harley.
