Description

Gaar Williams Among the Folks in History, Our Secret Ambition, and Wotta Life! Wotta Life! Daily Single-Panel Comic Strips Original Art Group of 6 (Chicago Tribune-NY News Syndicate, 1929). Williams generated many a classic gag from the raw materials of humiliation and awkwardness. His cartoons ran under various titles, all unified by an unerring sense of human nature. These choice examples (without formal day-and-month numbering) cover such bases as class discrimination, gossip, and shirking duty -- all with eloquent body-language and precisely the right words. Ink over graphite on Bristol board. Image areas, 13.25" x 13". Light-to-moderate toning. Conditions range from Very Good to Excellent. From the Ray Edw Collection.
