Drawing of George by Sam Patrick (November 10, 1952; actual size approx. 7.9 x 10.0 in. (20.1 x 25.4 cm.)). This image was scanned from a photo print of the drawing, not the original drawing. I can tell you more about the creator of this remarkable drawing than I can the circumstances of its creation. According to AskART online, Samuel James Patrick was "Born in Pennsylvania on July 17, 1901." (Exactly 49 years to the day before I was born.) "Patrick began his art studies in Philadel- phia at night while working in the steel mills. By 1925 he had moved to Los Angeles and enrolled at the Otis Art Institute. He was then a staff artist at the Los Angeles Times for over 40 years. His book illustrations won many awards. Patrick died in Los Angeles on May 31, 1987."
