Description: The Comic and Fantasy Art Amateur Press Association (CFA-APA) was founded in 1985 by Roger Hill. Its membership consists of knowledgeable fans, creators, and collectors of comic and fantasy art who write about various subjects related to those genres. The group self-publishes approximately three times a year and each issue has a theme relating to a specific creator or subject. If you are reading this, then you understand just how rare this is. I have not seen one on ebay ever before, and there is unlikely to be another available soon. This is a Special Edition (#4 2017) Called CFA-APA Flashback Its a 30th anniversary reprint (in color no less) of the 1987 Chicago Comicon. LIMITED PRINTING OF ONLY 40 COPIES. This Special Issue is 14 pages (fourteen). It is 8.5" x 5.5" It has the official stamp and the signature of the editor (David A). It is MINT and will ship from my smoke free home safely packaged. About the CFA: The COMIC & FANTASY ART - AMATEUR PRESS ASSOCIATION (CFA-APA) is made up of members who are collectors of original artworks used in the publication of comic strips, comic books, pulp magazines, and fantasy books. Founded by Roger Hill in 1985, this APA has published an issue on a roughly quarterly basis for the last 38 years. Each issue is based on a topic - usually a particular artist, or group/school of artists, or art collecting topic. The topic of the upcoming issues are announced ahead of time to the members, who are asked to write something on topic for the respective issue, but this is not mandatory. Generally most of the content of each issue is writings on the topic/personages of that issue's dedication, sometimes including interviews - and often INCLUDES ARTWORKS NOT PUBLISHED ELSEWHERE as they may be commissions and other work purchased from the artists directly, etc. In the CFA-APA the number of copies of each issue has been as LOW AS 40 COPIES to a HIGH OF 60 COPIES! As most members have held onto their copies, since it contains their own writings, finding a copy of any issue on the market is VERY RARE INDEED! The CFA-APA began as an informal forum for original comic art collectors to exchange ideas, experiences and information. It provides serious fans and collectors of comic and fantasy art with a forum/publication for discussion of topics, ideas or opinions relative to the original art marketplace. It is designed for those people who have a genuine interest and love for all types of art collecting: comic book art, illustrations of science fiction, fantasy, horror or adventure stories, pin-up/good-girl art, cover art from paperbacks, hardcover books, magazines or pulps, newspaper strips or cartoon art, animation art, movie posters or advertising artwork, and related illustrations or sketches.
