THE GREAT AMERICAN COMIC STRIP One Hundred Years Of Cartoon Art

This is both a serious appreciation of comics and art and a celebration of a wonderfully rich and alive tradition of humor in America. It’s a lively overview of the comic strip in America combines a highly readable survey with a "Who's Who" directory of 275 leading comic-strip artists and creators, past and present, and is a history of comics, from both an artistic perspective and as a form of social criticism. It treats the work of well known artists as well as some outstanding lesser-known artists, such as Winsor McCay, Harold Knerr, Frederick Burr Opper, Burne Hogarth and more! There's 17 color and 120 black-and-white illustrations. Out of Print. Condition:Good. Minor cover discoloring, wear around the edges with bumped corners.
