This original artwork is signed by the artist, the late great Rick Griffin!

We are excited to offer this SIGNED ORIGINAL ART by the late, great master Rick Griffin. This very unique piece was drawn by hand with pen & ink by the legendary artist in 1964. Griffin at the time was the cartoonist that chronicled the LA surf culture of the day in Surfer Magazine. The cartoonist injected his surfing alter ego character, Murphy into the magazine's pages. This piece was titled "Surfer Tips".

In recent years we have witnessed a huge increase in demand for Griffin Original Art by collectors worldwide. The reason is simple. In most cases, artwork like this does not make it outside the artist's circle of immediate family or personal possessions. So when something like this DOES surface, its uniqueness and desirability is quickly perceived by collectors. This piece belonged to the artist and was subsequently acquired by a known collector of Griffin's work. A unique treasure in its own right, this SIGNED piece of original art is ONE OF A KIND and cannot be owned again until the winner of this lot decides to part with it for whatever the market will bear.
