    Famous Cartoonist Button 53-A / KSP Button # 71

    Neal Adams. Adams' energetic and contemporary style injected new life into DC characters such as Green Arrow and Batman in the 1970s. He developed a studio around his distinctive style and became very successful providing commercial art services utilizing a comic book look. His Continuity Studio also begat a comic book publishing company, sometimes called "Neal's Folly," which didn't fare nearly as well. Adams, when not drawing, is an amateur physicist with controversial views about the basic elements that make up our universe.


    About the Buttons:

    Pinback Jack issued this "Famous Cartoonist Series" of self-portrait buttons back in 1975. All of the participating cartoonists were alive and created self-portraits specifically for this button set. With very few exceptions, the images have not appeared elsewhere in print. The buttons were distributed by Krupp Comic Works and Phil Seuling. This set was originally announced as 52 buttons, and the alphabetical numbering reflects that. However, two artists (Neal Adams and Rick Meyerowitz) turned in their self-portraits late, after the first 52 had already been designed. They were included in the set, but numbered 53 and 54 respectively, out of alphabetical sequence. Steve Krupp's Curio Shoppe is now the exclusive source of the remaining limited inventory.

    All the color buttons in this set are metal with clear celluloid covers, are 2.25 inches in diameter, and have "safety" pinbacks. This button is listed for sale as an individual, but we do offer the complete set as well.
