Sad ending for a fantastic artist! 🙏🏻

Reed Crandall had very few contracted works in the 1970s, some random jobs for Warren Magazines with artwork that reduced in quality over time, one Marvel story for Creatures on the Loose 13, 1971. Treasure Chest stopped buying new material, and he was losing money. He moved in with his family in Wichita, Kansas and worked as a night watchman in a Pizza Hut warehouse. He suffered a stroke in 1973, couldn’t draw anymore, became disabled and lived in an institution. In 1982, same year he had this picture taken, he had vascular dementia and then had a heart attack and died.
