Overview: The 1977 Frank Frazetta Calendar was the first calendar that featured paintings from the popular fantasy artist.
Frank Frazetta shot to prominence a decade earlier when his paintings featured on the covers to Robert E. Howards’ Conan the Barbarian novels, published by Lancer Books. Frazetta’s evocative and beautifully painted covers proved an instant hit with readers and he quickly became one of the most sought after artists in the fantasy genre. Indeed, the artist became so popular that the name Frazetta has become synonymous with fantasy illustration.
Published in 1976 by Rufus Publications the 1977 Frank Frazetta calendar featured reproductions of 13 paintings by the artist. Rufus had previously enjoyed great success a couple of years earlier with The Fantastic Art of Frank Frazetta, a 96 page art book that showcased the artist’s work. The calendar was clearly meant as a companion piece to that book as it featured the same typography and design and even the numbering of the prints in the calendar continued directly from the book.
