Kelly's lettering and typography add so much to our visual pleasure. I know that much of that was supplied by his able assistants, but I know that he directed all of that.

Wow. Comics sure were different back then. Not to knock Keith Knight or Jim Meddick though, their stuff's great too.
Weren't the rabbit Pogo comics generally supplied as an alternative for newspapers which did not want to run the day's controversial political cartoon, which might be making fun of McCarthyism?
I am posting these images with a non-profit and educational 'fair use' motive, regarding respective copyrights. Anyone downloading and using these images for any commercial use would be in violation of respective copyrights, and does not have my approval for such use.
My name is Thom Buchanan.
I'm an artist and photographer.
People are my favorite subjects to portray in art and photos. My wife (and studio partner) has called that my 'people skills', as I've been passionately creating portrait studies for many years.
I refer to myself as a pictorialist, a combination of image-making and journalist. Images are my life.
