On March 14th, the DICK TRACY comic strip will have a new team working on it. Dick Locher has decided to move on and do some other things BUT will continue doing editorial cartoons.
Dick and I talked about his McDonald's paintings. I have an alternate version of the painting above that he painted the boy on the left as a white boy. He said Ray Kroc wanted to get Norman Rockwell to do the paintings and somehow found his way to him.
Dick's TRACY work will be missed. My parents recall a dinner he attended with them for a police function some years back.
