In various inter- views Barks had referred to the “Landon correspondence course in cartooning” he’d taken when he was sixteen. Fascinated, I tried to find a copy of Landon’s course. After a couple of years of searching on eBay and other auction houses – where I was only able to find partial copies – I finally tracked down a com- plete copy from a New York rare book dealer. In the meantime, my research revealed that more than a few cartoonists from Barks’s generation had taken the Landon course.

The Comic Art Collection also contains numerous important gifts that complement and enhance purchased titles. The University of Missouri Collection contains published works by and about the University and its faculty, while the University Archives maintain the University'S official records and publi­ cations.

    Eden of the South A Chronology of Huntsville, Alabama 1805-2005 Edited by: Ranee' G. Pruitt Eden of the South . begins with the discovery of a limestone spring by settler John Hunt. In just over a century and a half, the settlement named in his honor would make worldwide headlines for research and development, earning Huntsville the name, the Space Capital of the World. But our history did not stop there! This book takes readers back to the little known incidental moments uncovered from numerous sources, as well as the amazing details behind the big events, famous people, and, more importantly, the unsung heroes. Two hundred years, a brief snapshot in time, are remembered by the people of the time. Over 700 photographs capture moments and commit them to immortality. Tragedies and triumphs, thought to be long forgotten, are recorded in one fascinating book. The Huntsville-Madison County Public Library proudly offers this publication as a fitting birthday present to celebrate the first 200 years of Huntsville, Alabama, the Eden of the South.

    Content Survey & Selective Index For Editor & Publisher International Year Books *1929-1949 Compiled by Gary M. Johnson Reference Librarian Newspaper & Current Periodical Room Serial & Government Publications Division Library of Congress 2013 This survey of the contents of the 1929-1949 Editor & Publisher International Year Books consists of two parts: a page-by-page selective transcription of the material in the Year Books and a selective index to the contents (topics, names, and titles) of the Year Books. The purpose of this document is to inform researchers about the contents of the E&P Year Books in order to help them determine if the Year Books will be useful in their work. Secondly, creating this document has helped me, a reference librarian in the Newspaper & Current Periodical Room at the Library of Congress, to learn about the Year Books so that I can provide better service to researchers. The transcript was created by examining the Year Books and recording the items on each page in page number order. Advertisements for individual newspapers and specific companies involved in the mechanical aspects of newspaper operations were not recorded in the transcript of contents or added to the index. The index (beginning on page 33) attempts to provide access to E&P Year Books by topics, names, and titles of columns, comic strips, etc., which appeared on the pages of the Year Books or were mentioned in syndicate and feature service ads. The headings are followed by references to the years and page numbers on which the heading appears. The individual Year Books have detailed indexes to their contents.

Still suffering the aftershocks of the Great Depression despite Franklin D. Roosevelt’s progressive New Deal nos- trums—unemployment stood at 17% for 1939—Americans eyed the expanding wars in Europe and Asia nervously. Some tried to dismiss Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini as comic opera buffoons, decrying the hostilities as a “phony war” because not much had happened since the blitzkrieg dismemberment of Poland the previous September. These naysayers did not see it for what it was: the calm before the storm. Before the first year of the new decade was out, Nazi Germany seized Norway, Denmark, Belgium, the Nether- lands, and ultimately France, while attempting to bomb the United Kingdom into subjection. The British held out defiantly, and Hitler reluctantly abandoned his plans to invade England. That small victory brought no cheer to the conquered nations, where Der Führer’s relentless oppres- sion of Jews and other scapegoated minorities was in full force. Il Duce, too, continued his aggression, as Fascist Italy invaded Egypt and Greece.

    Cartoons Come to Beverly Shores by Hal Higdon Merrill Blosser

    Volume 18, Number 33 Thursday, August 22, 2002 Cartoons Come to Beverly Shores by Hal Higdon Merrill Blosser. Tom Henderson. John T. McCutcheon. With the possible exception of the last, the names would probably not be recognized by most fans of fine art, but they are cartoonists whose work currently is fea- tured in a small, but fascinating, exhibit at the Depot of Beverly Shores. “Indiana Cartoonists” is an exhibit organized by the Indiana Historical Society. “The exhibit actually has been travelling the state for nearly a decade,” claims Martin Douglas of the Indiana Historical Society in Indianapolis. It will remain in place in Beverly Shores for the remainder of this month. Since the Museum section of the Depot is open only on Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 to 4:00 p.m., you have only a small window of opportunity to view the exhibit. (For more information, phone 219-871-0832.)
