| never been “Cartoonist Constitution” lots of familiar “Cartoonist Constitution” lots of familiar images including Lu Ann. images including Lu Ann. 2. One Sheet Poster for Spiderman’s 30th Anniversary. Very colorful looks to have been autographed by Bagley in 1992, put out by Marvel Comics. Nice rare collectable from the past. 3. Hardback book: “The Best of Impossible Worlds.” This book is filled with text and cartoons about how the movies have influenced our lives. This is another nice collectable for the cartoonist and movie buff. 4. Very old magazine Vol 1 NO 3 of “The Artists Monthly” December 1925, It is billed as a magazine or students and all interested in art. A British publication. Some very interesting material and pictures and drawings in these pages. This magazine had some interest to Paul Gringle it has been well cared for and kept in plastic wrapper for years. A rare find! 5. “You’re On The Air” a hard back book by Daddy O. Daylie, the story of a black disc jockey in top 40 radio (Before talk radio.) 62 pages with photo’s nice collectable. 6. “Little Masterpieces of American Wit and Humor” Hardback books in like new condition published in 1916, Volume 3 and Volume 5.Mostly text with a few illustrations.

Carl Sandburg says; “In this book you hear the keen talk of the artist.” Published 1952, Beacon Press.

Published 1943 by Whitman Publishing Company, text and cartoons of the popular character. (Some light water damage but contents good.) A rare look at this comic classic. 10. “Skippy” by Percy Crosby, hardback book 1929, published by G.P Putnam’s Sons, text with illustrations by the author. Classic series of stories, very collectable. 11. Original “Winnie the Wac” by Vic Herman, advertising is on cardboard. Circa World War II, a nice piece of advertising for the book that should be preserved by someone. Vic Herman was a longtime member of SCCS and this is some nice original art to remember him by. 12. “Faber-Castell Lettering System with tools” everything comes in a nice 16 X 6 plastic locking case. It does not look like this unit has ever been used. In like new condition. A system that allows an artist to do professional lettering. Complete with instructions. Ideal tools for someone who needs this equipment. 13. Original pen & ink Paul Gringle “Deer on the Run.” 11X16 no date, signed on heavy drawing paper. A nice piece for any collection. 14. Old Printers block 4X6 inches, titled: “Old Wagon.” Possibly a Paul Gringle cartoon for newspaper publication. Covered wagon pulled by oxen. A nice memento of the way cartoons were printed, very collectable. 15. PRO Cartoonist & Gagwriter weekly newspaper. These are all from the 1961, period and are full of news and ideas for cartoons and gags. A lot of famous people took part in the material that appears on the pages of this publication. There are 21 different issues; each is about the size of a tabloid newspaper with excellent pictures and illustrations. Fun to look at with a lot of good material waiting to be rediscovered and used. A great find from the recent past. 16. Drawing Board with built in “T- Square” handle for carrying, and legs to give it a slant for drawing. (One of the slant supports is missing.) This is a very large drawing board in very nice condition. It is 24X36 inches in size and a professional model. It looks like it received very little use. 17. Plastic holder for paintbrushes, pens, pencils and a bowl of water for the artist’s desk. This spins around like a lazy susan. Has seen some use but in good condition. About 12 inches in diameter. 18. Portable Plastic Drawing Board with large clip to hold paper in place and a holder under the board for pens, pencils and additional sketch paper. Some pens and pencils in the case. In very nice condition. Size 16 X 12 inches. |

GOTTA KEEP MEETING LIKE THIS
by Karyl Miller
11/26/08
People always ask me what we do as
SCCS. November used to be our ho hum
month, but that has changed! We had two
fantastic gatherings in November which I
think will earn a place as annual SCCS
events. Our usual Wednesday evening
meeting wasn’t usual at all (more about
that later). And Tuesday November 25 a
bunch of SCCSers had fabulous fun
drawing free caricatures of donors at the
annual San Diego Chargers Blood Drive.
They were: Joe Annino, Wardell Brown,
Arlington Cruz, Greg Evans, Koba, Tony
Magtantay, Greg Mullendore, Frank
Mitchell, Frank Mutasio, Joe Schmidt,
Joanne Stevens, John Tighe, Janet
Williams, John Wismont and yours truly.
We also had the pleasure of meeting
football great Ralph Benirschke, the
Charger whose tragedy was turned onto
the triumph that inspired the first Charger
Blood Drive 30 years ago.
Since sports always seem to have stats
attached, here are ours:
15 = number of SCCS artists drawing
caricatures for the annual San Diego
Chargers Blood Drive
25 = average number of caricatures drawn
by each SCCS artist
375 = total number of caricatures drawn
by SCCS members
2 = number of donor-models who asked if
our own Joe Schmidt was once their
beloved art teacher from Hilltop High.
100 = number of people who mistook our
own Wardell Brown for LaDanian
Tomlinson (even though LT is not known
for being a sketch artist or for wearing
the jersey of another player).
6 = number of jelly donuts missing after
Greg Evans left the room
