Clare Victor Dwiggins
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
CLARE VICTOR DWIGGINS (June 16, 1874 – October 1958) was an American cartoonist who signed his work DWIG. Dwiggins created a number of comic strips and single-panel cartoons for various American newspapers and newspaper syndicates from 1897 until 1945, including his best-known strip, the long-run _School Days_.
Born in Wilmington, Ohio,[1] Dwiggins was on a path toward a career in architecture but detoured into cartooning when his artwork was published in the _St. Louis Post-Dispatch_and the _New York World_ in 1897. He created a wide variety of gag panels, including _J. Filliken Wilberfloss_, _Leap Year Lizzie_, _Them Was the Happy Days_, _Uncle Jim and Tad and Tim_, _Mrs. Bump's Boarding House_, _Ophelia and Her Slate_[2] and _Bill's Diary_.

Comic Strips[Edit]
Sample of his work, Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn cartoon from 1919.
Dwig's first comic strip was _Tom Sawyer and Huck Finn_ (1918), which used more than a half dozen of Mark Twain's characters but employed very little content from his novels. Dwig began _School Days_ in the early 1910s as a single panel, and it eventually evolved into a Sunday strip with a storyline about schoolkids that continued until 1932.[3][4]
Dwig drew _Nipper_ (1931–37) for the Ledger Syndicate. In 1940, he returned to _Huckleberry Finn_ in the pages of _Doc Savage Comics_ and _Supersnipe Comics_. He also drew _Bobby Crusoe _in 1945 for _Supersnipe Comics_.[3]
Books[Edit]
After 1945, he focused on illustration, including five books published with August Derleth.[3]
*please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job i can usually only mail packages out on saturdays. I send out first class or priority mail which takes 2-3 days to arrive in the usa and air mail international which takes 5 -10 days depending on where you live in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an archival sleeve with acid free backing board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and i wil do my best to make it right.
Many thanks to all of my 1,000's of past customers around the world.
enjoy your hobby everyone and have fun collecting!
