"GAS AT GUADALCANAL"

"GAS AT GUADALCANAL"
Part 5 in my series on rare art from Holmes Basic artist Dave Trampier is now online.

  1. UPDATE - After contacting Tim Kask himself, there may be reasons to believe this is not a Trampier work after all. I will continue researching this and update with any new information I find.

  2. Wow, I find that hard to believe. It just looks so Trampier.

  3. I agree, and Tim admits that he is trying to recall a piece of art from 35 years ago that he didn't directly approve (Joe Orlowski was editor at the time). Still, he had reasons to think it is not Trampier.

  4. Update (again!), one reader spotted Tramp's DAT initials hidden in the grass!

  5. That's awesome. I looked for his initials when you first posted, but couldn't find any. But as soon as I saw your update I looked again and 'DAT' jumped out at me!
