Everett Raymond Kinstler - Jim Vadeboncoeur

Everette Raymond Kinstler's portraits of Ronald Reagan, John Wayne, Jimmy Cagney, and Katharine Hepburn may be familiar to art lovers, but few realize that he honed his craft as a high school dropout, inking and sketching comics for pulps like
Dime Mystery.
This book is the first to examine the popular culture phase of Kinstler's career, and it includes an extended biography liberally spiced with anecdotes, reminiscences, and commentary by the artist. More than 300 illustrations
many reproduced from originals in Kinstler's archives
portray his lively early work, including double-page pulp spreads, paperback novel covers, and panels from
Classics Illustrated.
