From the golden age of illustration is this Harold Nelson 'editorial cartoon' of sorts looking all the world like he channeled a Mike Kaluta Conan the King cover from decades into the future. Can't you just see the Conan the King masthead looming behind this guy?

The cover of Savage Sword of Nelson #1?
I kid, but,what's that from? Is it an allegory for world war 1? It says A.D. 1918 at the bottom.
E.G., WW I was my interpretation, which is why I called this an 'editorial cartoon', but I have no idea what the context was for this image. It was from a book on pen & ink, with no explanation.
By Crom! Conan would be proud to have this adorn a scroll of his adventures. Seriously very cool drawing.
Peter, one of these days I'm gonna drop some logo type behind this guy, unless someone beats me to it.
Just heard the sad news that Jeff Jones has passed away.
Yes, I just heard that too. Very sad.
is that Elric? the helmet makes me think it could be Elric.
