Twenty years ago today, Hal Foster passed on.

A Canadian, Foster charmed and captivated kids and adults with his drawing and storytelling.

in 1957, the National Cartoonists Society awarded their annual Reuben (designed by Rube Goldberg).

Foster was best known for 'Tarzan' and, of course 'Prince Valiant'.
