More on the Des Moines Peanuts Artist

dmpeanuts.jpg

Back in 2005, I posted an online reprint of a very, very unusual Des Moines Register and Tribune supplement, in which Charlie Brown and Lucy pay a visit to that newspaper’s headquarters. It was probably one of the most-read items I’ve ever published here–among other things, I got Boing Boinged.

In the original post, I guessed that the artist, Bob Davenport, was a staff artist at the paper. Now his nephew–also a Bob Davenport, by the way–has posted a comment on my original piece confirming my guess and providing some details about the man behind the supplement and his other work.

  2. A cool story like this deserves more than some crummy comment spam. Perhaps our pharmaceutical commentators would like to find out how many it actually takes and report back to us.
