I find so many wonderful little spot drawings and cartoons in my collection of old magazines. The problem is, they are often reproduced so small and so randomly that I usually pass them by in favour of showing you some spectacular double page spread story illustration or full page ad.
This week however, I'm going to share a selection of tiny spots I've come across that are well worth more than a glance, starting with this selection of great little cartoons from various 1961 issues of Parents magazine.
Who drew these great little spot cartoons? There was no credit line in the magazines I scanned them from. Could it be the work of Lowell Hess?
I love these!
ReplyDeleteThe illustrator is Dan Lawler, the de facto house illustrator for Parents Magazine and Humpty Dumpty...

Very Clever and funny spots, love them.
ReplyDeleteI knew if anyone could positively ID this artist it would be you, Glen - thanks! :^)
ReplyDeleteThey ARE lovely! One thing I'd like to see you cover from time to time is technique...I'm curious how these 60's illustrators created their "fuzzy" ink lines and pastel-like textures, and how they were prepared for reproduction. Are the originals in gray? Black? Does anyone know?
