About the book

Editor Rick Marschall focuses on the commercial roots of newspaper strips; the cross-promotions of artists, their characters and retail products and the superb artwork that cartoonists invested into their lucrative freelance work in advertising. Drawing Power is a cultural history, chronicling a time in popular culture when cartoonists were celebrities and their strips and characters competed with the movies for the attention of a mass audience.
