Sketch of Comic Dog, 1954, pencil and crayon drawing

I drew this comic dog that was in a comic book in 1954 when I was 9. My mom kept it all of these years and gave it to me in the early 2000s with a bunch of other things she had saved of mine. This drawing has been relatively well preserved. The image of this old drawing is good, too, thanks to being able to scan it directly versus finding it in old photos, which is the typical way I've been able to find previous art work that I've done. Check out the bottom where I've written my name but misspelled it by forgetting to add the final "a."
