Until next week ... here's artist Clarence Gray

Snagged unashamedly from the Golden Age Comic Book Stories blog, a page from the 1949 book, "King Features Artist and Writers." They really seemed to be trying hard to give readers the idea that Clarence was a normal, blue collar kinda guy who just happened to be drawing some of the wildest stuff around. There doesn't seem to be a page in the book for author William Ritt, who was leaving the Brick Bradford strip at about that time. Click on the article to enlarge it.
