Poster by Craig Hamilton - 1994

sg





This was the one Aquaman item by Craig Hamilton that I've never been able to acquire--it shows up rarely on ebay; if ever--a full-size poster, featuring a very bad-ass looking Sea King with Craig doing his usual superb illustration job.

(Ever wonder where Atlantis gets the necessary loot to build all those palaces? Well, now you know!)

Anyway, then how did I get this, you ask? Well, this scan of the poster was sent to me by Craig himself, making him the first person to be a subject of the Shrine as well as a F.O.A.M. member for providing me an item to post!

Congratulations and thanks again, Craig!

It's even more gorgeous than I remembered. Where the heck is mine, anyway?

My husband still teases me about how I put this on the wall of our bedroom shortly after we were married. I'm not sure where my copy went, but my husband sure remembers this poster. Heh.

laura-

i didnt mention this in the post, but Craig gave me this little detail about the poster:

>>The printed poster was "edited" to
remove the shiny glare from the crotch area.<<

I wonder what your husband would've felt about that! :)

Too much information...

Great poster though, the detail is crazy!

One of my favorite pieces in my collection! One of the best portraits of Arthur I I have ever seen.

Ah! To own all Craig Hamilton Aquaman related pieces is my dream.

One day...

I have this poster, but it was way too gay to put on my wall. And I'm gay!

I used to have this poster hanging in my wall when I was a kid ...I think it;s still in Mexico somewhere in my house

I don't know if any of you will see this? But if you're still interested in this Aquaman poster by Craig Hamilton, I'm selling one on eBay…
