Frank Frazetta - The Living Legend (1981 - Frazetta Prints) 
This is a book focused solely on Frazetta's drawing work. 54 of the 96 pages are full-sheet presentations of them. The rest of the pages are given over to photographs, biographical text, comic pages and strips. The 10-page origin story of Thun'da, King of the Congo, is reprinted in its entirety. Unfortunately, there are a few black-&-white photographs of his paintings and some longer works have been displayed sideways. There is no captioning of the drawings, but the contents page reveals that they are put together as illustration groupings from BUCK ROGERS, AT THE EARTH'S CORE, PELLUCIDAR and selections from various portfolios, with LORD OF THE RINGS, KUBLA KHAN and WOMEN OF THE AGES present in their entirety. So, if you already have all the higher-recommended FANTASTIC PAINTINGS OF FRAZETTA, the Underwood retropsectives, FANTASTIC WORLDS, the PILLOW BOOK, FRAZETTA SKETCHBOOK I & II, ROUGH WORK and the Ballantine books, you will still find here 14 new large drawings and one that get's its best presentation yet here. As usual, Frazetta's work includes a number of nudes, both male & female.
