A surprise card from a friend in Oklahoma and she has sent a card after visiting the Chester Gould Museum in Pawnee OK.. Chester Gould is better known as the Creator of the famous comic strip detective and crime fighter "Dick Tracy". This was a comic strip character that became very popular and read and enjoyed all over the world. Chester Gould was born in Pawnee Oklahoma in 1900 and started his drawing career at the age of 7, although it was much later in life that he found his mark. He then created the Dick Tracy character and comic strip in 1931 and continued with it until he retired from it in 1977.. He died in Woodstock Illinois in 1985. This illustration can be found in downtown Pawnee at the corner of 6th and Harrison..I loved this character and all the amazing criminal individuals that he fought with in his comics.. memories..
Thank you Benita for this great card...Posted Oklahoma City 01 May 2014...Thank you again Benita..
