by Frank King (Author), Peter Maresca (Editor), Chris Ware (Foreword by)
Dive into this collection of rarely seen material that takes a new look at one of the great masters of American comics, giving insight into a developing artist and greater understanding of his inspiration to the generations that followed.
Gasoline Alley is considered one of the greatest achievements in 20th century comic strips. But leading up to his most famous work, Frank King wrote and drew over a dozen other comic strips and features, perfecting the art and storytelling that would lead to Walt and Skeezix and their extended family. This seminal work is filled with the standard slapstick, action, and wordplay seen in other comics of the period, but with a style and feeling that is distinctively Frank King.
Front Jacket
Frank King created nearly a dozen comic strips and features before his classic masterpiece, "Gasoline Alley." During his first 10 years at the Chicago Tribune, he would perfect his talents in art and storytelling that would lead to Walt and Skeezix and their extended family. This volume presents a sampling of each of King's early Sunday and daily comic strips like "Bobby Make-Believe," along with a comprehensive selection of his editorial cartoons and the complete run of the incredible jam-comic "Crazy Quilt." Enjoy the rarely-seen work of one of the true greats of the American comic strip. WIth a Foreword by Chris Ware and an Introduction by Jeet Heer. FREE BONUS: a facsimile of the "Motorcycle Mike" action toy from 1914.
Author Biography
One of the pioneering giants of American comic strips, Frank King was born in Cashton, Wisconsin, in 1883. He joined the staff of the Chicago Tribune in 1909. Almost from the start of his career, King's cartoons were frequently featured on the front page of the paper. He made his lasting mark in 1919 by creating Gasoline Alley, which became one of the most widely syndicated and read strips in North America until King's death in 1969.
