As a follow-up to yesterday’s post, this is a signed print by Dave Carson, illustrating Karl Edward Wagner’s British Fantasy Award-winning short story of Lovecraftian horror, ‘Sticks’ (the story itself was inspired by the strange, stick-like motifs which appear in some of the work of Weird Tales illustrator Lee Brown Coye, who also provided the covers for some of Arkham House’s early Lovecraft collections).
I seem to recall picking this up in the late 1990s from Arkham - a shop in Brighton, UK, which used to specialise in weird and Lovecaftian art and ephemera - when Dave Carson had a small exhibition on there, but I’m not entirely certain of this.
