Mortimer Leav (1916-2005), American illustrator & artist. He photocopied his original illustration for me, and then personally signed it. I have three up for auction, please see my other listings. Sheet measures 8 ½” x 11”. Page was folded, fold is visible, but not prominent. Overall outstanding condition. Mort gave me these illustrations in the 90s, and he was kind enough to sign them and speak with me. I was a fan of his work, and he was a very, very nice person to speak with and stay in touch with.
He was the co-creator of the famed comic book character The Heap, and is famously known for his advertising art which included some of the earliest television commercial storyboards including Procter & Gamble's Charmin Tissue, and the grocer Mr. Whipple.
His credits are extensive, and he is widely known in the comic book world. Selling with no reserve. Please do inquire with any questions you might have.
Thank You for looking……
