Scott Brown was a nationally known cartoonist and proprietor of Brown's Drugstore and Soda Shop in Mansfield, Ohio, which served up "the largest, coldest and best chocolate sodas on Route 30" along with chuckles, gags, and checkers. Brown's cartoons appeared in Colliers, The New Yorker, The Saturday Evening Post, and other magazines and newspapers from the 1930s to the 1970s.
For the first time ever, Scott Brown's cartoons and stories, set within the context of his life, are presented in this full-color biography written by his grandson Chris Kuntz. Included are more than 130 images including beautifully detailed examples of his works from multiple private collections and museum archives-many that have never before been seen by the public.
