CSotD: CSotD Extra edition: How Mauldin did it

DerfDerf Backderf has managed to obtain an original of the extra-edition Chicago Sun-Times of November 22, 1963, in which Bill Mauldin's legendary Lincoln Weeping For The Death Of Kennedy cartoon appeared. It inspired me to dig around and find my source for the way I've told the story for … as it turns out … a little over 40 years.

Here, from the short-lived but never boring Audience magazine, is the story of how Mauldin created that cartoon, as written by up-and-coming Chicago scribe Bob Greene.
