Description: About the item: From the April 1982 issue of Playboy (and later reprinted in The Art of Doug Sneyd on page 101), this pencil sketch features a preliminary rough created by acclaimed illustrator Doug Sneyd for that issues gag cartoon. Rendered on vellum, it measures approximately 8 1/2 by 11 inches and is taped to a sheet of paper. Sneyd redid the face on vellum and cut it out, then pasted the new art over the existing face (hence the discoloration due to the glue used). This listing includes a small Xerox copy of the finished cartoon (which measures approximately 3 1/4 by 5 inches). Condition is good- as a prelim and as part of the creative process it was not expected to be kept perfect. Would look great framed together! Of note, the outside entrance, including the stone landing, is Doug's rendering of the entrance of his own house in Canada. About Doug Sneyd: Doug Sneyd began his career in commercial illustration before going freelance to work for a variety of book and magazine publishers. He also illustrated single-panel cartoons for the Toronto Star, Canada's largest circulation newspaper (cartoons that were eventually syndicated throughout North America). In 1964, he began working for Playboy and his gag strips have appeared in the magazine ever since. Throughout his career, he has contributed over 500 cartoons in all and became a favorite artist of Playboy readers.
