“Only a mind rich in fantasy could have produced the unforgettable creatures populating his many children’s books: The Reluctant Dragon in “Dream Days,” Humpty Dumpty in “Mother Goose in Prose,” Prince Agib and Sinbad in “The Arabian Nights,” Pompdebile in “The Knave of Hearts. His characterisations, combined with his strong sense of design, made him the most popular advertising and cover design artist of his time.” Susan Meyer, America’s Great Illustrators, p.120
