From 1980, felt tip on very thin bond. I was preparing to start attending a graduate program at the University of Washington, so perhaps the housing note had something to do with locating a place close to campus, I don't remember. I eventually did move from Ballard to the Ravenna-Bryant neighborhood, a close walk to school. No car or TV in those days, which no doubt helped in my comix art being so prolific at that time.

The first four portraits here are from Morty Comix # 875, created Feb. 5, 1984 while I was living in Pullman, Washington. The next seven images were created in late 1979 or early 1980. The last nine drawings are from 1980 and were drawn on very thin bond with felt tip. The Bushey Taxi quick sketch reflects my time as a taxicab driver for a fleet by that name in Burlington, Vermont in 1979. Big orange 1970s floater cars running 24 hours a day.

Probably from the first half of 1980, or perhaps very late 1979 during my "out of college, money spent, see no future, pay no rent" period. But oh that magic feeling. A prototype of the "Big G" character shows up in this batch.
