SIGNED: YES, A SURPRISE AND RARE APPEARANCE BY LEGENDARY BERNIE WRIGHTSON AT TORONTO FANEXPO 2014. I APOLOGIZE FOR THE LAST 2 PICTURES. DIMENSIONS: 22″ x 34″. ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: WRIGHTSON WAS AN ANNOUNCED GUEST OF HONOR FOR TORONTO FANEXPO SPRING 2014. HOWEVER, HIS VISIT WAS IN DOUBT AFTER HE SUFFERED A MINI STROKE AROUND THAT TIME AND ALSO HAVING SUCCESSFUL SURGERY WINTER 2014 TO REMOVE A TINY CYST-LIKE TUMOR IN HIS BRAIN. UNFORTUNATELY AFTER COUNTLESS MONTHS RECUPERATING AND HAVING MULTIPLE SURGERIES, IT HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL AND HAS AFFECTED HIS COGNITIVE AND ARMS HINDERING HIS ABILITY TO DRAW. IT WAS ON FEB 2017 THAT HIS WIFE HAS ANNOUNCED, BERNIE IS OFFICIALLY RETIRING FROM ANY NEW ART OR ATTENDING ANY CONVENTIONS. A RARE OPPORTUNITY TO ADD THIS TO YOUR COLLECTION. BERNIE WRIGHTSON WAS A TRUE HONOR TO MEET, ESPECIALLY IF YOU’RE INTO HIS CLASSIC HORROR CREATIONS AND SWAMP THING (HE CREATED ALONG WITH WRITER LEN WEIN). CONDITION: LIKE NEW, VERY FINE +++ CONDITION. THERE IS VERY FAINT SPORADIC STRESS DINGS NEAR THE MIDDLE. VERY HARD TO FIND, I NEEDED TO USE FLASH TO LOCATE THEM.

THERE’S SOMETHING FOR EVERYONE! HOW THESE POSTERS ARE KEPT: BACK IN THE EARLY 80’S AND 90’S THERE WAS NO METHOD AVAILABLE THAT I COULD FIND TO PRESENT MY POSTERS WITHOUT HANGING ONTO MY WALLS TO ADMIRE. MY ONLY OPTION WAS TO KEEP THEM ROLLED AND STORED IN A BOX. IT WASN’T UNTIL AROUND 1998 THAT I STARTED TO ORDER POSTER SLEEVES TO BOTH PRESERVE AND BE ABLE TO ADMIRE MY FAVORITE CHARACTERS OR ARTISTS. SIMPLY PUT, THEY’RE LIKE HUGE COOL ART ON YOUR WALL. BUT THE FACT IS THEY MAY WELL BE AS RARE AS COMIC BOOKS SINCE THEY’RE SPECIAL NOVELTY ITEMS AND THEIR PRODUCTION RUN IS MUCH SMALLER. THEY WERE MOST LIKELY POPULAR DURING 1980’S, BUT AS TIME PROGRESSED, COLLECTING BOOKS WAS THE WAY TO GO. POSTERS WERE PUT TO THE SIDELINES AS TOYS, T-SHIRTS, STATUES AND GRAPHIC NOVELS BECAME MORE ABUNDANT, LESS MAINTENANCE AND APPEALING. THE GOOD NEWS NOW, WITH BEING A COMIC COLLECTOR IT’S NOT EXCLUSIVE TO NERDS ANYMORE. WITH THE MEGA POPULARITY OF COMICS IN THE MEDIA MAINSTREAM, IT’S AN OPEN MARKET TO CATER COLLECTORS, AND HOPEFULLY I HAVE WHAT THEY NEED :D.
