Pen Tips On Cartooning by Charles Stoner

 

Pen Tips on Cartooning by Charles Stoner is 48 page booklet that's copyright 1949 by C. Howard Hunt Pen Co. There were at least three editions. This is a second printing. Hunt pen nibs, made for a dip pen, are still available to buy. The nice thing about the book is that Mr. Stoner has plenty of samples of drawings along with an editorial note on most pages about what kind of pen nib he used. Other than him being the author of the booklet, I can find no other information about him online. The small drawing of an off-model Mickey Mouse at the top of the cover was probably made by a previous owner. Other than that, the book is clean and complete.
