If only I had the same talent
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
What's to say - a great artist - the talent of which I admire the most and would love to have. Definitely one of my favorite books. On the list of items I would wanna be buried with... For this particular book - yes - that good....

At least to me (that is)...

a classic; old-school style
Customer Rating:  Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4 Score = 4
Exhaustive variations, small printing and illustrations, pages jam-packed with examples. Good for the price; some readers will probably prefer a more modern volume. Talented author. Worth a look.

I'm always looking for the perfect book of whatever variety, & speaking as a former library employee, a cartoonist & art teacher, Jack Hamm has written THE book on cartooning. It is so packed with examples & not so much text, as it should be, it has tips & then TONS of examples. The style ranges from early American cartooning style to 50s/60s modern style. Fantastic examples of different expressions, hand positions, walking positions, drawing women, all of it. All good. If you want a great guide for old fashioned American cartooning, this is the one to get. Then get the Preston Blair book from Walter Foster.

Great reference
Customer Rating:  Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5 Score = 5
This book is full of great ideas and tips. There's plenty for the beginner, like little tutorials on highly-stylized eyes or noses or mouths, or straightforward examples on common poses, but it's not just a book for beginners. There are a lot of highly-finished drawings as well, and examples of moving from simple to more complex drawings. Plus tips on various penciling and inking techniques, and various cartoon genres. All in all, there are literally thousands of examples and sketches, enough material to keep anybody busy for a long time. I've pulled this book down from the shelf more often than any of my other numerous drawing books, and I've filled page after page with exercises based on the material. A classic and worth far more than its price.
