weirdlandtv:First known sketch of DC Comics’ Wonder Woman, by the original artist, H.G. Peter. Circa 1941.“Dear Dr. Marston, I slapped these two out in a hurry. The eagle is tough to handle–when in perspective or in profile, he doesn’t show up clearly–the shoes look like a stenographer’s. I think the idea might be incorporated as a sort of Roman contraption. Peter"Marston replies (red ink):“Dear Pete - I think the gal with hand up is very cute. I like her skirt, legs, hair. Bracelets okay + boots. These probably will work out. See other suggestions enclosed. No on these + stripes–red + white. With eagle’s wings above or below breasts as per enclosed? Leave it to you. Don’t we have to put a red stripe around her waist as belt? I thought Gaines wanted it–don’t remember. Circlet will have to go higher–more like crown–see suggestions enclosed. See you Wednesday morning - WMM.” -- source link
