Signed Frank Frazetta Lithograph!

8:02 PM PST, 6/16/2009

You can bet my hands were shaking when I bought this lithograph at a local estate sale recently. Research online shows that these signed vintage lithographs can go for multiple thousands of dollars up to tens of thousands for super rare items, see FrankFrazetta.com for some examples. This lithograph was purchased at auction by the previous owner from Butterfield and Butterfield Auction house in Los Angeles several years ago. It has a minimalist silvertone aluminum over wood frame with plexiglass instead of regular glass. It measures 23" by 17" for the lithography, and 31" by 23.5" with the frame. The lithograph is held in place by little triangular corners which it slips in and out of easily, but there are a couple small pieces of tape near the top holding the whole thing in place which I haven't removed. Printed on textured heavy paper, possibly silk paper. Signed in the plate, and hand-signed "Frank Frazetta" also. No indication of size of the edition, but these were often under a hundred, at most just a few hundred. Amazing condition, with just some fine light scratches to the plexiglass that don't detract one bit!
