The artist's running commentary of what he saw and experienced on & near the front lines and the WWII drawings that made Mauldin the friend of GIs and the bane of some of his superiors, such as General Patton.
Eventually, Mauldin moved back to New Mexico where he grew up. 'Later I was told that most Chicago news dealers sold the paper with the cartoon side up.' HE CARTOONED for the Chicago Sun-Times for almost three decades. Not remaindered, ex-library or Book Club edition. 'Our first edition was on the street at 4:45 p.m.,' Mauldin said. There is a 3" x 4" book plate on the front paste down and an inked inscription on the FFEP after those, the interior is clean and completely free of writing, stray marks and any sort of paper damage there is a brown stain on the lower front corner of each page from 81-103-neither the text or cartoons are affected.
