Title: Such is A Life: The ENB Estate Post by: TELLE on December 21, 2005, 10:10:50 AM Thank goodness we have his comics and other contributions to Superman, et al, because looking at E. Nelson Bridwell's estate makes me kind of sad.
http://www.lib.utulsa.edu/Speccoll/bridwen0.htm 13 comics boxes. I hope I leave a juicy diary, at least.

Where was THIS in SUPERMAN II? I'll have to keep my eyes peeled next time I watch the thing. Title: Re: Such is A Life: The ENB Estate Post by: Daughter of Krypton on December 21, 2005, 01:13:29 PM I know that he had boxes and boxes - a complete apartment full - of notes he had made about things like life on Krypton, the complete Kryptonian language (which he had fully developed - a vocabulary, grammar, alphabet, etc), and more.
I think those boxes possibly went to Rich Morrisey and/or Al Turniansky when he passed on, I'm not sure. Nor do I know where they are today. But I do know that they are invaluable, and are the real treasures of his estate. :s: Title: Re: Such is A Life: The ENB Estate Post by: TELLE on December 21, 2005, 10:52:16 PM It's good to know that there is more out there. Like I said, we know about his vast contributions to world culture. They are just not reflected very well in this collection.
I would like to hear/see more about his film cameo --not on the cutting room floor, I hope. |
