Description: this is one of a few pieces of art from the collection of Kennett Neily, best known for his amazing collection of SILVER AGE COMICS, now referred to as the White Mountain Collection; well he had a lot of interests, one of the big ones was Science Fiction and he had an interesting collection of ART. i was able to acquire a few choice pieces, all Science Fiction in nature and all being offered on EBAY. you are considering the item shown and important info will be below along with some info about the collector. THIS ART----it is a very nice original ink drawing colored with watercolor, i love it, it is signed and dated, i can tell the date is 1972 but the name is hard to read. A once common item of sf Terminology, being an acronym of Bug-Eyed Monster and referring to the type of Alien creature, usually menacing, which was regularly pictured on the covers of SF Magazines in the 1930s and 1940s. - See more at: http://www.sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/bem#sthash.XQsYlUEv.dpufA once common item of sf Terminology, being an acronym of Bug-Eyed Monster and referring to the type of Alien creature, usually menacing, which was regularly pictured on the covers of SF Magazines in the 1930s and 1940s. - See more at: http://www.sf-encyclopedia.com/entry/bem#sthash.XQsYlUEv.dpuf i think this was purchased at BOSKONE a science fiction convention held in Boston. This is a original item from the collection of none other than Kennett Neily. who is he you ask, he was the man in the story below who sold the famous "White Mountain Collection" of silver age comic books, known for being in amazingly clean unread condition and for having a date stamp, from when the item was purchased the first page inside, well he did that on just about everything he bought. In 1984 a man approached Jerry Weist, owner of "The Million Year Picnic" comic shop in Cambridge, Massachusetts, with a small sampling of comics from his collection. This initial meeting was the hobby's introduction to what is now referred to as the White Mountain Collection. Few collections of Silver Age books approach the consistently high level of condition and page quality that White Mountain copies possess. Weist would eventually become the organizer for Sotheby's comic book and comic art auctions. In that capacity, he introduced the collecting world to this fabulous discovery, offering choice samplings in Sotheby's 1991, 1993 and 1996 auctions. Many collectors are still not aware that the collection's large body of Silver Age publications also included a small sampling of choice, early Underground Comix. It should also be said that most collectors have yet to grasp the significance of that inclusion. For most Silver Age collectors, the UG's are the forgotten books of the period, and this is a serious omission on their part. AND EVEN FEWER KNOW AB0UT HIS COLLECTION OF SCIENCE FICTION BOOKS, H.P LOVECRAFT ITEMS (he published a zine called Lovecraftian Ramblings in the 80's), MAPS, TRAVEL BROCHURES, PORN, TV GUIDES, CAR MANUALS, MAGAZINES, ART, ETC. also in amazing, mostly unread mint condition.
