More Draut

As a follow up to the previous posts with artwork by Bill Draut, here are two pages from his "The furnished room".
These appeared in Stuntman #1, 1946. They are made on thick illustration board and... I own them both. :)


Compare the above pages with the photo of this one, that I found on eBay. (From "Weird War Tales" #48):


As the years went by he really thigtened up those brushstrokes without losing the sense of spotting black areas. And you can still see the Caniff/Sickles influence. Good stuff.

Interesting and definitely a talented artist. I think he was too polished in the last page though. The two first pages had more life in them. Thanks for sharing.
