    Roy Krenkel “Dian of Pellucidar”.

    Est: $1,000 - $2,000

    89. Roy Krenkel “Dian of Pellucidar”. (1962) Accomplished in colored pencil on 10 x 12 in. artist leaf. This piece is the original art that got Roy hired at ACE paperbacks in 1962. Wollheim wanted an example of a St. John-style illustration. Roy drew this. Wollheim loved it and offered Roy the job. Roy got Frank on board and the rest, as they say, is history. Historically significant and a damn fine drawing in its own right. Roy sold it to Capt. George in Toronto (of the vast Whiz-Bang organization), a legendary early publisher of fanzines and bootlegs. He was a seminal person in early fandom. I saw the piece on the wall of his shop in Toronto while attending graduate school. Capt George told me the story and I confirmed it with Krenkel. If this particular set of circumstances had not come together, then what would have happened to Frank’s career? Interesting to ponder. $1,000 - $2,000
