Description

From the back cover:
"The first of a two-volume set, this is a comprehensive look at the life and career of one of the most-read and best-loved cartoonists of the 1950s and 60s.

"Compiled in cooperation with Doug Wright's family, it draws from thousands of pieces of art, pictures, letters, and the artist's own journals."

This volume covers 1949 - 1962.

Co-edited and designed by Seth. Introduction by Lynn Johnston (For Better or for Worse).

Includes the first half of Wright's biography, profusely illustrated with original art; a wonderful portfolio of magazine illustrations and panel cartoons; and a complete collection of "Nipper" dailies and Sundays 1949 - 1962.

Nipper was a Canadian Dennis the Menace who terrorized his parents, other children, and strangers in largely wordless sequential strips.
