Paul Tumey with original art by Rube Goldberg
Paul holds a copy of The Art of Rube Goldberg
Paul Tumey sends news and photos telling us about the new book The Art of Rube Goldberg, to be released by Abrams in mid-November. Amazon has the ordering information.
Paul is one of a half dozen essayists in this book. For those of you who don't know, Mr. Tumey maintains an excellent website devoted to the art of screwball cartoonists, with Rube Goldberg being the chief screwball.
I had the pleasure of meeting Paul in person when he braved the wilds and along with some other screwballs attended the McCleary Mini-Comics Day a couple years ago. Here's part of the group pictured in Elma, where we ate dinner: taken by filmmaker (Bezango, WA) Ron Austin with Jim's camera: L to R: Jim Gill, Morty the Dog, Paul and Reid Tumey, Frank Young.
