Mat contains a dedication to Kathy. Paper backing is torn. ~~ Marvin Bradley (1913-1986) was a comic artist who provided artwork for many strips including Kerry Drake, Mary Worth, and Speed Spaulding. In 1948 he worked with background artist Frank Edgington to draw Rex Morgan, M.D., the strip that made them both famous. Bradley drew the strip until 1978, and then served as a consultant until his retirement in 1984.
Rex Morgan, M.D. (1948- ) was created by Ohio-based psychiatrist Nicholas Dallis (1911-1991), who used the pseudonym Dal Curtis. Dallis wrote the strip based on his experience in the medical profession. He was persuaded to find a storyline to make the subject palatable. He used the young and handsome doctor named Rex Morgan, who often became involved with his patients, as a vehicle for his medical stories. Despite its heavy dramatization, the strip allowed the introduction of medical subjects that were instructional to the public. $100.00. Pick up in Bennington, Vermont.
