Sometimes the artwork of Mom and Dorothy were chosen for prizes, but they would often say, apparently, "Darn it, that Hardie Gramatky won another cover!" IF you ever find any illustrations in Pen and Ink that show my mom's work, I would love to see it.

(We also have www.littletoot.org about his Little Toot books.) I always presumed that Dad's first work at Disney around 1928-1929 would have been a Mickey Mouse comic book, because I believe Disney started making shorts in 1927 as well as "Steamboat Willie". I'd love to know more if you know that there were NOT comic books done when Disney started. But that was how I always heard it!
