Strip Art Features
Publishing services company profile: Strip Art Features, Celje, Slovenia
In 1971, Ervin Rustemagić – then 19 – had founded the comics magazine "Strip Art," which was published in Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina (then a part of Yugoslavia), and distributed in the entire territory of ex-Yugoslavia. In 1984, "Strip Art" earned the prestigious "Yellow Kid" Award at the International Comic Convention in Lucca, Italy, for best comics magazine in the world.
"Strip Art," the magazine, was the founding base for SAF - Strip Art Features, the agency which, in the beginning, worked with a small number of authors and sold the publishing rights to their comics to foreign publishers. In mid-1970's SAF started to work very ambitiously with some of the world's leading comics authors. And, in the 1980's, it became one of the world's top five licensing houses, selling rights to comics to more than 500 publishers worldwide.
Sarajevo, the home of SAF's headquarters, became a war-torn city in early 1992. SAF's offices and Rustemagić’s house were completely destroyed, and Ervin got trapped in the city together with his family. More than 14,000 pieces of original art were lost in the flames that burned down SAF’s offices. The Rustemagić family managed to escape from the war at the end of 1993, and settled in Slovenia, also one of ex-Yugoslav republics. In his graphic novel titled "Fax from Sarajevo," Joe Kubert described and illustrated what Ervin and his family had gone through during the war.
