McCay/Bangs

In 1904 Winsor McCay had an illustrative collaboration with humorist John Kendrick Bangs whose "House-Boat on the Styx” (featuring the shade of Sherlock Holmes) was a best-seller in 1895. Others who illustrated these series were Wallace Morgan, artist on “Fluffy Ruffles,” and an unknown whose signature was Reese.
