G176 "The Mask of Atacama" Drawn by Frank Bellamy |
This is the second of the Ethan Roberts Collection to be auctioned on Heritage in the last month from the Garth story "Mask of Atacama". Heritage Auctions are trickling out the Bellamy parts of the collection one by one. Interestingly they decided to 'hide' this behind the login process as it is deemed to have "adult content". So I've done you a favour and shown it here
Heritage describe this piece:
