About the item: 

From American Century #25 (August, 2003), this original art page features pencils by Lan Medina, inks by John Stokes, with story by legendary comics creator Howard Chaykin.  Please note- this is an actual, original piece of artwork pencilled by hand by Laming and inked by hand Stokes.  It is not a copy, print or pre-printed image, or bluelines.  It is a one-of-a-kind original!  The issue cover and the final, colorized page as it appears in the book are shown for reference.  But please note that the comic itself is not included in with the listing.  The listing is for the original artwork only. In excellent condition, it will be shipped with the utmost care. Measures approximately 11 by 17 inches and is signed by Chaykin. 

Certificate of Authenticity/Provenance: 

Excepting pack-pulled autograph trading cards, CGC Signature Series, signed Sideshow prints, and like collectibles, all autographed items Vault Collectibles sells were personally witnessed, by myself, being signed by the writer, artist, or celebrity in question.  No third party is involved.  Further, art sketches - and most published original art I sell - were obtained directly from the artist themselves.
