Clyde Caldwell Online: Hidden Treasures

Clyde is a pack rat. It is very difficult for him to part with things, especially some artwork. After eight years of marriage, I have managed to convince him to offer a few items from his treasure trove for sale. Believe me, it hasn't been easy to get him to part with anything from this stash. These items will be placed in a new section on the website called "Hidden Treasures." Many will be one of a kind, so if you're interested in any, act quickly or they may be gone. I will try to add a few more items each month, depending on my powers of persuasion.

Allisa of the Mists Matted Print
©1990, 2008 Wizards of the Coast All Rights Reserved
Size: 14 3/4" x 19"
Matt Size (Outer Dimensions): 21 1/2" X 26 1/2"
Date: 1990
Price: $200.00

The limited edition of 500 signed & numbered copies of this print is long sold out. This is the last copy I have for sale, #293/500. The painting was used as the cover for TSR’s Forgotten Realms Adventures game manual and the image became an icon for Forgotten Realms.

The print has some slight warping on the bottom due to minor water damage, though it is barely noticeable. The matt is in good condition.

Allisa of the Mists Sketch
©2008 Clyde Cadwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 8 1/4" x 10 3/4" on two sheets of Tracing Paper
Medium: Pencil
Date: 1990
Publication: Savage Hearts 2 Sketchbook
Price: $300.00

This was the original concept sketch done for my painting, 'Allisa of the Mists'. It's done on two separate sheets of tracing paper, with the background (buildings and trees) on one sheet and Allisa and the war unicorn on the other. When displayed together, this gives the piece an increased feeling of depth.

Assassin Costume Design
©2008 Clyde Cadwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 4" x 9" on two 8 3/4" X 13 1/4" sheets of Tracing Paper
Medium: Pencil
Date: 1984
Publication: Savage Hearts 2 Sketchbook
Price: $300.00

I designed this costume for a futuristic assassin for my 'Death Rattle' painting which appeared in the 1986 Amazing Stories Calendar. Model Jeanne Stanley made the costume and posed for the assassin in the painting. I also did a black & white piece called simply, 'Assassin', for which Jeanne also posed wearing the outfit.

The artwork consists of two drawings on two separate sheets of tracing paper. They would look great matted and framed together as one piece.

Babette the Barbarian Black & White Print
©2008 Clyde Cadwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 11" x 14"
Date: 1990
Publication: Signed & Numbered, Limited Edition Plate for the 'Death Angels' Portfolio
Price: $50.00

This print was originally a plate for the ‘Death Angels’ Portfolio, a portfolio done in the 1990's with contributions by 4 TSR artists. The available portfolios sold out many years ago, but several of the portfolios were never assembled due to the fact that one of the artists failed to sign and number some of his prints. Therefore I have found a few copies of both ‘Babette the Barbarian’ and ‘Dragon’s Blood’ for sale that were never incorporated into the original portfolio. Some of the prints have low numbers (to be sold on a first come, first serve basis).

These prints are rare and I only have a very limited number of copies. The two prints may also be purchased as a set.

Dragon's Blood Black & White Print
©2008 Clyde Cadwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 11" x 14"
Date: 1991
Publication: Signed & Numbered, Limited Edition Plate for the 'Death Angels' Portfolio
Price: $50.00

As with 'Babette the Barbarian', this piece was a plate in the 'Death Angel's' Portfolio, a portfolio done in the 1990's with contributions by 4 TSR artists. The available portfolios sold out many years ago, but several of the portfolios were never assembled due to the fact that one of the artists failed to sign and number some of his prints.

Buck Rogers Comic Book Cover Sketch
©2008 7reg;Dille Family Trust All Rights Reserved
Size: 6 5/8" x 10 1/4" on Tracing Paper
Medium: Marker
Date: Late 1980's or early 1990's
Publication: Unpublished Comic Book Cover Concept Sketch
Price: $250.00

When I worked at TSR, the owner of the company also owned the rights to Buck Rogers. TSR produced some Buck Rogers related products during this time. I didn't really work on the Buck Rogers material, but was called on to produce this concept sketch for a Buck Rogers comic book. To my knowledge the sketch was never used, but remains my one and only tie to the legendary Buck Rogers.

Dragon Attack Sketch
©2007 Clyde Caldwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 8 1/2" x 11" on Tracing Paper
Medium: Pencil
Date: 1983
Publication: Unpublished Sketch for 'Dragon Attack' Painting
Price: $200.00

The original title for this sketch was 'Attack of the Golden Dragon'. The editor of Dragon Magazine wanted me to change the color of the dragon in the painting to black, so I changed the titled of the piece to 'Dragon Attack'. The painting was used as the cover for Dragon Magazine #72.

There is some yellowing from aging, and the tracing paper is taped to a backing board.

The Leopard Men of Darfar
©2007 Clyde Caldwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 8" x 10 7/8" on Tracing Paper
Medium: Prismacolor Pencil
Date: Early 1980's
Publication: Unpublished Sketch for 'The Leopard Men of Darfar' Painting
Price: $200.00

This sketch was done for a painting intended for the cover of The Savage Sword of Conan #92. I was paid for the painting, but it never saw print. I'm guessing that the original artwork was stolen, or at the very least, lost, since I never got it back from Marvel.

There is quite a bit of yellowing from aging, and the tracing paper is taped to a backing board. There is also a tracing paper overlay with the Savage Sword of Conan logo and type indication.

Elric Cover Color Sketch for CHACAL
©2007 Clyde Caldwell All Rights Reserved
Size: 8 1/2" x 11"
Medium: Markers & Prismacolor Pencil on Layout Paper

Price: $125.00

This item was done in my fanzine days in the mid-to-late 70's, so is around 30 years old! It features a scene from one of the Elric novels. Though I did the sketch for the publisher of CHACAL magazine, I never got around to doing the finished painting. This was my only attempt at illustrating Elric.

Girl from 'Escape from Skull Keep'

Size: 8" x 81/2" on 11" x 12 1/2" sheet of Tracing Paper
Medium: Pencil
