Those Whacky Cartoonists

Saturday Cathing Up Day. 

There has never been a lot of information published about cartoonists. A little bio here and there, a few biographies of the bigger ones. The Stripper's Guide has a few decent pieces about a few by the incomperable Alex Jay, but that's it. Here is a piece in some magazine I found on The Internet Archives from the Chicago Daily News 1945-01-07.

 

And here are two pages from the 1947 october issue of American Legion. 

 

And ad by Mort Walker in Art Direction (from The Internet Archive):
And finally the third, fifth and sixth installment of a series from Publisher and Publisher in july, September andNovember 1959 (also from the Internet Archive):

Great feature. I always love seeing cartoonist's self-caricatures. Thanks.
