Publisher's Synopsis
McCay's cartooning style, although decades ahead of its time, was popular during his lifetime. With the advent of motion pictures, McCay leveraged his popularity as a cartoonist to introduce what he would become most famous for - animation. Hailed as the father of animation, McCay's static cartoons are no less vibrant and unique. Volume 7 features McCay's lavish, detailed illustrations from his New York editorial period, as well as a collection of comic strips.
