Description

The third volume of Alex Raymond's modernist classic, Rip Kirby, contains nearly three years of strips, from September 24, 1951 through April 17, 1954.

Raymond hits his post-War stride with lush and incomparable brushwork that made every other comics artist take notice. Co-written with Ward Greene and Fred Dickenson.

World's best photographer, the sexy Bijou Benson; a playboy sheik from Algiers; a revolution in the Middle East; the return of criminals Joe Seven, Fingers Moray, and the deadly Mangler; the deadly Lili Lavelle; all while Honey Dorian, of course, is not happy that Pagan Lee re-enters the picture.

Edited and Designed by Dean Mullaney, Introduction by Brian Walker. This collection has the best reproduction of any previous American edition.

This came from the library of Burny Mattinson (1935-2023), an animator, director, producer, and story artist for Walt Disney Animation Studios, from 1953 until his death in 2023. Mattinson directed Mickey's Christmas Carol and The Great Mouse Detective. He was named a Disney Legend in 2008 and was the longest serving employee of The Walt Disney Company, with a career that spanned almost 70 years. His extensive library included numerous subjects and especially large collections of books on Disney, animation, and classic comic strips.
