The artist is notable, but I don't even remember what was being advertised. Still, the image of an innocent scientist turning his back on his beloved creation is sooo Gahan Wilson.
I haven't found this image in any Wilson collection. I presume that it's because it was advertising in now-defunct niche specialty media. Since I just now pulled my copy out of desk files that I hadn't touched in years and scanned it into an image site, this is probably the first time this piece of Gahan Wilson art has been seen in many decades.

#8 here is a cleaner copy. I could not find who drew it.

Nice. Gahan Wilson fan from way back. Thanks.
Oh yeah. Gahan Wilson did a ton of stuff for Playboy publications back in the day. A very successful artist.
