I first discovered Stan Lynde and RICK O'SHAY when my Dad brought home an out of town paper in the sixties. The strip was never carried locally but I followed it intermittently through newspapers we'd pick up from time to time. Many years later, Lynde published one of my favorite books about comics--seen here--as well as numerous volumes of sequential RICK O'SHAY strip reprints...and even an all new comic book series in the eighties! Rest in Peace, sir...and thanks.
Had a chance to meet my fellow Montanan, Lynde, back in the early 1990s. A real gentleman and talented cartoonist and storyteller.
