Hi Ann ...
Concerning Jimmie CABORN ...
I have found him spelled as Jimmy

Here: http://www.funnypaperz.com/inations/toon1cc.html he is listed with
"Little Rodney" but nothing else.

At least it narrows it to 1937 if you have to order microfilm.

Wish it could have been more,
clemi

> Does anyone remember either the "Little Rodney" or "Front Seats"
cartoons? Jimmie CABORN was the cartoonist. He moved his family to
Cleveland about 1938, and I believe he was already doing one or both of
these cartoons for the Cleveland Plain Dealer at that time. He was gone
during WW II, but I think he resumed one or both after the war. I
understand that the cartoons were carried elsewhere around the country,
also.

PLATT. I'd appreciate any further information on Jimmie CABORN and his
cartoons. All I really have is from an obituary 7 Feb 1955 from the
Fremont News Messenger. I'd really like to see some of them, so I think
I'll try to see if I can order in some film on Interlibrary Loan. Any
help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Ann
