Voices for Children Posters up for Sale

Paul Burke, a former comics publisher and entertainment executive, posts on the Library of American Comics Newspaper Strip Appreciation Facebook Group that he is selling 10 posters from a fundraiser he did with 69 cartoonists back in the early 1970’s.
He writes:
I created this artwork with 69 artists 40+ years ago to raise funds to combat child abuse. I have not seen a poster in almost 40 years and did it bring back memories. I’m sad to say that off the 69 artists, almost all of them have passed away.
Thirty years ago, an antiques dealer bought an estate and found 200 posters. He found me a few weeks ago from the “Rebel Taste” article about me and contacted me.
He gave me a few dozen posters and I gave them to family and friends and have ten left to sell to collectors.
