Buch

Experience the adventures of the world's most famous comic strip detective just as they appeared when originally published.

Über den Autor


Chester Gould (1900-1985) was born in Pawnee, Oklahoma, the son of a newspaperman and grandson of a circuit-riding preacher. He attended Oklahoma A&M (now Oklahoma State University) before transferring to Northwestern University in Chicago, from which he graduated in 1923. He produced the minor comic strips Fillum Fables and The Radio Catts before striking it big with Dick Tracy in 1931. Originally titled Plainclothes Tracy, the rechristened strip became one of the most successful and lauded comic strips of all time, as well as a media and merchandising sensation. He was twice accorded the Cartoonist of the Year Reuben Award by his peers. Gould continued to write and illustrate Dick Tracy until his retirement in 1977.
