Description
|
|
|
|
The illustrator behind Mars Attacks, Wacky Packages, and other Topps collector cards, as well hundreds of covers for Modern Mechanix, Classics Illustrated, and various pulp magazines like Dime Detective, Saucy Movie Tales, Tom Mix Western, and Marvel Science Stories, Norman Saunders' sometimes funny, often sexy, always dramatic imagery is an iconic part of American pop culture. Yet he also produced a series of abstracts inspired after meeting Jackson Pollock, and remarkably nuanced images of New York City, of the Burma Road and China in 1945, and of Europe in the 1960s and 70s. David Saunders pays warm tribute to his father's six-decade career in this visual biography; the 880 illustrations include working drawings, reference photos, and gorgeous color reproductions up to 18 x 12 inches.
