Canadian comics researcher John Adcock has uncovered a great article by cartoonist Harry B. Moyer. Moyer worked for a variety of Canadian publications in the early 20th Century. The article is entitled "Art and the Newspaper" and appeared in The Canadian Magazine in 1915. It chronicles the tribulation of the typical newspaper artist and all his jobs, with aparticular reference to cartooning in the U.S. and Canada. The article also includes a sketch by Edwin P. Gray, a cartoonist for the Salvation Army (!) and Toronto Star who died in 1914.Labels: comics history, ephemera, Ontario, Toronto
