Bill Mauldin







Mauldin's famous JFK cartoon was drawn on deadline in an hour. The editors at the Chicago Sun Times took one look at the drawing and immediately gave it the entire back page. Jacqueline Kennedy requested the original.
(thanks to the San Diego Tribune)





Today in 1921, Bill Mauldin was born. Mauldin was one of the finest cartoonist/illustrators of our generation.







This is a found photograph from the WW2 showing how accurately Mauldin depicted the US soldier.
