Hal-

Geez, I WISH stuff like this was mine!

Ah, for the days of the Museum of Cartoon Art at the castle in Port Chester, where pieces like this were EVERYWHERE - even in the john! At least, I was able to get some autographs from greats there, like Will Eisner, Curt Swan, Jack Davis, Mort Walker, & John Cullen Murphy.

And good point about the art; there was always a lot of cross-pollination (comic book folks who also labored for the Syndicates - or tried too! - include guys like Al McWilliams, Walt Kelly, Bob Kane, Jim Aparo, Eisner, John Romita, Doug Wildey, Russ Manning...)

Best,
