HAPPY PRESIDENTS' DAY! Here are some illustrations by my friend JACK DAVIS from his 1965 book MEET ABRAHAM LINCOLN. This book is what brought Jack's art to the attention of ARTHUR RANKIN, JR. and lead to him illustrating the WILLY McBEAN & HIS MAGIC MACHINE one sheet poster in 1965, designing the KING KONG series in 1966 and then designing MAD MONSTER PARTY in 1967! Arthur often talks about Jack's wonderful pen and ink work on the pages of this book. Ron Murphy gave me this book as a gift a few years back.
