The Three Musketeers & d’Artagnan

These four new figures were directly inspired by the art of one of my favourite comic book illustrators, Arturo del Castillo. Arturo was just one of a group of superb Spanish and Italian illustrators who found their fortunes drawing for all kinds of British comic books and illustrated children’s magazines throughout the 1950’s into the ‘60s and even the 1970s. I well remember their work and collected examples of their excellent artwork even as a young art student in Glasgow in the 1960s. This new quartet of figures shows the three musketeers and their young friend from Gascony leveling their swords as they swear loyalty to each other... “One for All... & All for one!”
