This one-of-a-kind color separation (made up of five layers – four of acetate and one of paper) features the cover to Batman #314 (released by DC Comics, August, 1979). It features the pencils and inks of Jose Luis Garcia Lopez with a great image of Batman facing off against Two Face. It includes five layers- the top four are acetate – a copy of the black and white line artwork, then a blue layer, then red, then yellow, and, finally, a white paper (instead of acetate) background layer. While not actually hand-drawn artwork, this nearly 40 year old color separation is still a one-of-a-kind item. It is signed by Garcia-Lopez. Please note- the signature is real. It is the actual, hand-signed signature of Garcia-Lopez. It is not a pre-printed image on the color separation. Before the advent of computers, the coloring of comic books and, for that matter, magazines, newspapers, etc. Regardless of however many colors appeared to the eye, were made up of tiny dots of four colors – yellow, blue (cyan), red (magenta) and black. Combined with the white of the paper and the way the human brain perceives the image, a wide variety of colors appear. The color separation (or color proof) was created to show the publisher what the actual, printed version of the comic would ultimately look like (so, if any corrections were required, they would be caught before the books went to press). Excepting pack-pulled autograph trading cards, CGC Signature Series, signed Sideshow prints, and like collectibles, all autographed items Vault Collectibles sells were personally witnessed, by myself, being signed by the writer, artist, or celebrity in question. No third party is involved. Further, art sketches – and most published original art I sell – were obtained directly from the artist themselves.
