[...] was an incredible experience to see original artwork by Hal Foster, George Herriman, Milt Canniff (read more of my visit and impressions of the library here). When the Sullivant Hall is complete, it’s going to be the cartoon museum without rival. [...]

I was recently able to visit the Library myself. I saw a few original Krazy Kat komics, some Pogo (early Pogo, from 1948) and two weeks’ worth of Calvin and Hobbes.

The value of being able to see these firsthand is priceless. Reproductions have been getting better and better, but the originals allow you to see the process of creating the art.

It was easily the best library I’ve ever been to, and that’s coming from a library geek.

Alan,

I don’t know if you mentioned you were presenting at the Symposium and judging the contest since that’s exactly what Jenny Robb did for us last year.

She’s a great resource.

The museum is pretty cool. Academia continues to figure out how to get paid for having fun, of course, I guess that’s why we do cartooning (except for the getting paid part for some of us)! ;)
