1986 TMNT Full Body Leonardo Ninja Turtles Original Comic Art by Peter Laird

  

Early artwork such as this, from the first two years of when the TMNT began, doesn't surface often. This was pre-movie, pre-cartoon, pre-toys... Back when it was basically just Kevin Eastman & Peter Laird pouring their all into their creation with no idea of the pop culture explosion that was about to ensue. What little artwork that does surface from this time is generally either an "Eastman & Laird" piece or just "Eastman". So little of Peter's solo work ever comes to market, probably because he kept most of it.

But now's your chance to snag one! This 30+ year piece is in very nice condition overall, with some spotting evident (see scan). Size is basically 8 X 11. And if you look carefully, you can still some light pencil under the pen and inks. It's just a tremendous piece, with the leader of the Turtles filling up the page ready for battle!
