(7¼ x 4¾ in.), on yellow tracing paper, stamp-signed with studio stamp at lower right corner; matted. Although drawn in a less stylized manner, the design corresponds closely with the final version used on the spine (and dust jacket) of the single volume trade edition of the Lakeside edition; it also resembles, although in a less stylized manner, each spine of the famous 3-volume set).
