David Wright's Carol Day: Jack Slingsby

Edited by Roger Clark, Chris Killackey and Guy Mills

About the Book

In Jack Slingsby we reprint the complete story from the original art, in the full size of the originals, a large 17 x 5.25 inches. Our goal is to give readers an experience as close as possible to viewing the original art, and to provide a definitive presentation, as Wright and his art deserve, of one of David Wright's very best stories.

Jack Slingsby is a companion volume to our first Carol Day book: Lance Hallam. As such in addition to presenting the complete art, we also include an extensive critical essay and scans of the complete art boards.

Images presented here are preliminary and may vary from published edition.
