This piece has not been published and that's a rare find! Don't miss out on collecting this rare piece of history!! Paul Webb American cartoonist and illustrator born in Towanda, PA. Paul Webb grew up wanting to be an illustrator and greatly admiring the work of Wallace Morgan. He took his art training in the 1920s at the School of Industrial Arts and the Academy of Fine Art, both in Philadelphia. While in school he won scholarships that allowed him two summer-long trips to wander throughout Europe. His art training was interrupted by a time at home caring for his ill mother. During this time he began freelancing magazine cartoons to the old Life, the New Yorker, Judge, Colliers, and <College Humor magazines Once The Mountain Boys, which Webb had created in 1934, became popular, the feature took all the cartoonists time.
In the 1930s, Esquire syndicated the feature to newspapers. Two Collections of The Mountain Boys were published in that period: Comin Around the Mountain (1939) and Keep em Flying(1941). In the mid-1960s, Paul Webb briefly drew the hillbillies for Columbia Features Syndicate. A paperback collection of The Mountain Boys was published at the time.
Paul Webb is now semi-retired. He devotes part of his time to giving humorous after-dinner speeches on the banquet circuit; his topic:A Few Ill-Chosen Words About Nothing in Particular.
