Interesting archive pertaining to the life and family of political cartoonist Irvin Dugan. Most of the material is personal in nature, with many interesting photographs related to the Irvin family, Masons, Boy Scouts, etc., a selection of Dugan's World War II cartoons, clipped from the Huntington West Virginia Herald Advertiser, a series of letters between Dugan and various officials as he tried to get his son's bride out of Australia during the War. An interesting, eclectic lot. IRVIN DUGAN (born James Irvin Dugan) was born in Guyandotte, West Virginia, on February 8, 1892, the son of James and Lizzie W. Dugan. After receiving his early art instruction in Huntington, W.V., public schools, he studied at the Chicago Academy of Fine Arts and the New School of Design in Boston.
