Original hand-drawn comic strip art by Dennis Renault for a comic published in The Sacramento Bee newspaper. Signed "Renault" in black ink at the bottom of the panel. Also inscribed in blue ink pen at the top of the panel: "To Norm - with appreciation and well wishes for the New Year(s). Dennis Renault, 1/6/83." Original black ink and blue pencil on white paper with white pigment for original corrections and editing. January 6, 1983. 11 1/2" x 14 1/2." Art is very clean and intact with minimal age wear. This is a single-panel comic. The panel (no demarcated borders) shows an older man in a white robe holding a scythe in one hand and an hourglass with "1982" on it in the other. He has a worried look on his face and says, "I've been dreading this day!," as a robot tugs at the hem of his robe with "1983" on its chest proclaiming, "Beep! Hello, Beep, Beep, I am Baby New Year, Beep, Beep, 1983, Beep!" Words spoken by the robot are formed by original stickers pasted on the panel. Portions of the illustration also have original screentone sheets on them for texture and shading. Dennis Renault (b. 1936) was an American political cartoonist at The Sacramento Bee and other newspapers. Beginning in 1972, he worked for the McClatchy Company and was the political cartoonist for three of its newspapers, The Sacramento Bee, The Fresno Bee, and The Modesto Bee. Renault retired in 1998 and currently lives in Monterey County. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 020547
