From the January 1992 issue of Playboy on page 77 (and later reproduced in The Art of Doug Sneyd on page 229), this original art features the hand-colored Xerox of the pencil sketch which measures approximately 8 1/2 by 11 inches.  Sneyd made a Xerox copy of the pencil sketch, then hand-colored that Xerox. This is part of the artists creative process in making the final cartoon as it will ultimately appear in the magazine.  Also shown is a Xerox copy of the cartoon as it ultimately appeared in that issue, which is included in with the listing.  Would look great framed together!  Please note that the magazine itself is not included in with the listing.  The listing is for the original artwork and the Xerox copy of the finished gag only.
