DescriptionTAD Dorgan (1877-1929) and Hype Igoe (1877-1945) were childhood friends who went to high school in California together and were taught art by the same teacher. They started in the cartoon business together in San Francisco before Jimmy Swinnerton brought them to New York in 1905 to work for Hearst. They continued their careers, though Igoe ultimately moved into writing, becoming, as Damon Runyon said, the best boxing writer in the business. This is an early (circa 1910) joint specialty piece sent to a mutual friend in San Francisco. I can’t tell you how scarce a jam piece like this is. Dorgan and Igoe were two of the most influential people in their disciplines at the time, and to have both together on one piece is amazing. And just check out TAD’s dogs. Love those early mutts of his. The piece measures nearly 6”x 9¾”. The stain in the lower right portion of the piece is evident, though it’s lighter in person than how it appears in the scan. It’s also a piece that can be easily conserved. Rare, rare stuff by two icons. $450.00 + 9.00 Priority shipping.Social/Sharing |
