Some Spider-Man items. Two concept images by Warren Manser for Sam Raimi's SPIDER-MAN (2002). Images three and four are Steve Ditko art showing his frustration at being sidelined as the character's co-creator.
(That third image also features the only known (well, sort of) depiction of Kirby's concept design, as this first image, unfortunately, is a fake, based on image 2.)
And this-an original drawing by Joe Oriolo for the proposed Casper storybook, where the character started life, or if you will, death. 1940s.
Animation art from the very first Tom & Jerry cartoon, PUSS GETS THE BOOT (1940).
Transgender synth pioneer, Wendy Carlos (1939). She composed the TRON score-one of my favorites. She also composed music for A CLOCKWORK ORANGE and THE SHINING (you remember the main theme & Rocky Mountains). Much more commercially successful perhaps was SWITCHED-ON BACH (1968).
Italian artist, Dino Buzzati (1906-1972). 1963.
Concept art by Claire Keane for unmade Disney feature, MORT.
Zombie designs by William Stout for RETURN OF THE LIVING DEAD (1984).
Art from the Rankin/Bass version of THE HOBBIT (1977).
Illustrations by Tove Jansson for a Swedish edition of THE HOBBIT. 1962.
Halloween card by Jack Davis. 1959.
