Description

Original unsigned sketch by filmmaker Tim Burton of a three-legged creature with a spotted body and pointy teeth, accomplished in black ink on an off-white 5 x 5 cocktail napkin. Burton drew and presented this sketch to Johnny Ramone when the two were at a nightclub in Hollywood, California, in June 1998. Ramone, in turn, gifted the drawing to his friend, artist Andy Gore. Includes the original mailing envelope to Gore (Andy Armstrong) from Ramone (John Cummings), who addressed the envelope in his own hand and has affixed his personal address label to the upper left corner. In fine condition.




From the personal punk rock archives of Andrew D Gore.
