See this book cover? It belongs to Virgil Partch's collection of WWII cartoons, published in 1945. Water on the Brain has some of VIP's funniest drawings. But it doesn't have this:
This drawing is on the fly leaf of the copy of Brain that's been in the family for sixty-plus years. It shows Partch on the left, Ralph Hulett (the artist with a mission) in the middle, and a naked woman -- apparently a willing canvas -- on the right. Hulett and Virgil Partch were buddies at Chouinard's, and went to Disney's at around the same time (the late '30s.) Partch left in the early 1940s to become a major print cartoonist, Hulett remained at Disney. I don't know what Partch was getting at in drawing this 'toon for my father, but I think it had something to do with Hulett's tendency to paint during every waking moment. Maybe there's more to it than that, but it's better if I don't travel there.
