Comics: More of Chic Young's Blondie

This post is just the tip of the iceberg... see reason number 2 on our The Top Ten Reasons To Support The A-HAA for links to more great posts about print cartoonists.

Chic Young's Blondie
The other day, Archive supporter Joe Campana stopped by for a visit. He brought along a book for us to digitize... Comics And Their Creators was written by Martin Sheridan in 1942. It's a treasure trove of biographical information on great comic strip artists. Today, I am presenting the chapter on Chic Young, along with some rare original Sunday pages from the collection of Marc Crisafulli.
