Description:-Art Type: Original daily comic strip artwork.-Medium: Pen and ink and blue pencil over pencil/graphite on art board.-Publisher: King Features Syndicate, Inc. -Publication Date: March 1, 1935-Dimensions: 26.125" wide by 6.375" tall (board dimensions; image slightly smaller)-Signed: Yes. Signed "Lyman Young". -Description: This is the original artwork for the 3-1-1935 daily comic strip TIM TYLER'S LUCK by Lyman Young (1893-1984) and, most probably, Alden "Al" McWilliams. McWilliams followed Alex Raymond and Burne Hogarth as Young's uncredited assistant/ghost on the strip during 1935; he was succeeded by Nat Edson. Most, if not all, of the art, excepting Tim and Spud's heads (which were always drawn by Young), is probably by McWilliams. Titled "Outnumbered" on the reverse, this daily features Tim, Spud, Weaver and a gang of rampaging apes. Spud and Weaver are dressed in ape costumes. Tim and Spud, members of the Ivory Patrol (sort of African game wardens who protected wildlife and captured poachers/criminals) set a trap for Weaver, who falls into the pit (yelling "Cheeko" as he falls in...Cheeko?). A nicely rendered action-packed strip from one of Tim's African adventures. The gang of monkeys/apes are wicked cool. One of the classic adventure comic strips. BEE Condition: -The art is in good to very good overall condition. Several creases and edge tears with some extending into the corners/edges of the artwork. Numerous tape repairs to reverse.
