Saturday Evening Post cartoon - Roy Delgado

 - - - - - - - - 

Just sold  this one yesterday to 

The Saturday Evening Post.

It was my dream back in 1953, as I drooled over the great cartoons in the then large size magazine, The SATEVEPOST  ( then almost 11"x14" in size) really great work by Ted Key, Harry Mace, Henry Syverson, Mort Drucker, people I totally admired,

and many more greats too many to mention here, I dreamed, but I also knew that If I stuck with it, If I kept my resolve, kept my eyes on the prize, I KNEW for sure back then that I too, would one day grace the pages of this great periodical, started by Benjamin Franklin.

Now the magazine has shrunken in size to about half of what it originally was.  I just didn't really think it would take this long . . . I started selling there a little over 10 years ago . . . . man what a trip !  But I got here . . . . and It feels great.

Had to pass this on.

It might just happen. "

and my favorite of all . . .  

" We become what we think about all day long. "

- Ralph Waldo Emerson.

All of these are as true as the day is 24 hours long.

The sooner you realize this the more careful you'll be with your precious time.
