    all have info about this artist (the last in Polish; again, Chrome can automatically translate), perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. This is the first work by him used here.

     

    Again, a larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #1991 (July 8, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.
