I'm very busy doing commissioned pieces for people right now, so I thought I'd post a couple of images from an item that I currently have listed on eBay. It's the 50 YEARS OF SID AND MARTY KROFFT auction catalog from 1998. From the catalog's ARTWORK OF SID & MARTY KROFFT section, here's an ELECTRAWOMAN and DYNAGIRL presentation illustration by legendary animation and comic book artist, ALEX TOTH! Below is a set design of WITCHIEPOO IN HER CASTLE for H.R. PUFNSTUF! Scroll down to my LINKS section (it'll be on the right) for the link to my eBay auctions to see the listing. Click on each image for a larger view! Update at 7:00 pm: The 50 YEARS OF SID AND MARTY KROFFT auction catalog has been sold.
Here's one of the early FLINTSTONES toys from Knickerbocker! This 1960 BABY PUSS vinyl squeeze toy stands just over 9" tall. Love these vintage FLINTSTONES toys! Wouldn't it be great if Warner Bros. Consumer Products re-issued the old FLINTSTONES and HANNA-BARBERA toys?
WILDSVILLE - THE ART OF DEREK YANIGER...pick it up or order it today! I received the book from my pal, Rick Goldschmidt the other day, and I highly recommend it! Great stuff! I'm also adding a link to DEREK's website to my LINKS section.
I've got quite a few great items currently listed on eBay. There's a few different pieces of my HANNA-BARBERA original art (including the above 14' x 17" piece), very rare Limited Edition FLINTSTONES vinyl figures from Funko, an incredible 119-book lot of DC Silver Age comic books (includes BATMAN, DETECTIVE COMICS, BRAVE AND THE BOLD, SUPERMAN, WORLD'S FINEST, JUSTICE LEAGUE OF AMERICA, etc.) and more terrific items! Scroll down to my LINKS section (it'll be on the right) and click on my eBay auctions link to see and bid on these fantastic items! Click on the above photo for a larger view. You can e-mail me at powsley@flash.net. Thanks! -- Patrick Owsley
This image is from the December 1968 issue of ARCHIE AND ME! 
Saw this on Jerry Beck's CARTOON BREW and had to post it, as well. I remember having this SNOOPY FOR PRESIDENT ruler, bookmark and cartoon guide (stencil). It's from 1972 and I was in Miss Kenyon's fourth grade class at St. Paul's School in Michigan City, IN.
Without a doubt, MEL CRAWFORD is the fan-favorite Little Golden Book illustrator! Love his sensational cartoon paintings of our favorite TV cartoon pals! Click on each image for a larger view.
I currently have these three sets of very rare FRED FLINTSTONE and BARNEY RUBBLE vinyl figures listed on eBay. The color variations on these sets is sensational! Reminds me of the vintage 1960s FLINTSTONES toys. To see the listing, scroll down to my LINKS section (on the right) for the link to my eBay auctions. FUNKO produced only 48 sets of each set this past summer. I don't see these color variation figures for sale anywhere. I did the preliminary concept designs for these very cool FLINTSTONES vinyl figures. Hurry...these won't last long! Click on each photo for a larger view.
I inked these a few years ago for the current FLINTSTONES style guide. Mike Fontanelli did the pencil art. Click on the images for larger views!
LON CHANEY JR. as THE WOLF MAN by legendary horror artist BASIL GOGOS.
Leslie and I are DISNEYLAND deluxe annual pass holders, and we always get our money's worth by taking numerous trips to the classic theme park. That's one of the many things we have in common...we both love DISNEYLAND! The above image is the poster for DISNEYLAND U.S.A., the Cinemascope PEOPLE AND PLACES featurette. The featurette is included on the WALT DISNEY TREASURES DVD set, DISNEYLAND: SECRETS, STORIES & MAGIC. If you're a fan of DISNEYLAND, and you haven't yet seen this terrific documentary, I highly recommend it! Click on the DISNEYLAND U.S.A. poster image for a larger view!
This BUGS BUNNY statue was produced in 1996 for the Warner Bros. Studio Store Collectors Guild. BUGS BUNNY is ceramic and stands almost 7" tall. I found this statue at one of the Studio Store sales that was on the Warner Bros. lot in Burbank back in 1999, for the low price of $10! What a deal for a great-looking classic BUGS BUNNY piece!

I did this WINSOME WITCH inking earlier today. The pose is from a WINSOME WITCH model sheet.

Home Video that we want more of their classic cartoon library released on DVD...which also includes classic HANNA-BARBERA cartoons! So, pick up the new LOONEY TUNES set today or order it on-line!

I highly recommend THE THREE STOOGES COLLECTION Vol. 4 - 1943-1945 DVD set! The set was released last week, so if you don't have it yet, be sure to pick it up soon! The set is loaded with more of the classic comedy of MOE, LARRY and CURLY! The above image of the STOOGES has nothing to do with the new DVD set.
