When you have 30 years of cartoons and other related artwork sitting around your house in boxes, you start wondering what the hell to do with all of it. When the University of Nebraska approached me about adding it to the cartoon collection that they had started, it seemed the perfect solution. I had thought about giving the collection to the Ohio State Cartoon Research Library, but since 90% of it deals with Nebraska issues, it seemed more appropriate to keep it here in the state.

I am hoping that this will give other cartoonists with Nebraska roots the incentive to share some of their work with the UNL Love Library collection as well.
