Local cartoonist Bill Friday sent us a treasure trove of his cartoons from over the years. He's kindly let us share them with you—which we will be doing every Friday on the Bent blog. Enjoy!
W.R. (Bill) Friday has been cartooning for almost 50 years. What started as cartooning with his two brothers for a kid-produced paper called the "Snooper Review," lead to a lifetime of comics. His cartoons have since appeared in publications and exhibits worldwide, from Portland, Oregon to Saint Petersburg, Russia, winning state, regional and national awards and recognition. Retired from the Forest Service, he spent over 40 years at the lookout towers in several national forests throughout Oregon.
