R.I.P. Mort Walker. Always liked your work.
There was an old bar on the MU campus that had a bunch of his drawings in it before he was famous. Some were also carved into the wood of the seats. I think it has since been flattened, but when I was in school, we used to meet between classes, have a couple of beers and a hamburger. It was called The Shack, the whole place was off plumb, it was a shack! Stag beer on tap
