Harold Tucker Webster

Here's a little known fact about Webster: around 1927, after suffering a very bad case of arthritis in his right hand -- his drawing hand -- Webster began drawing with his LEFT hand, and continued doing so for the remainder of his career.(!)

Photo of Webster is from rear jacket of How To Torture Your Wife (1948). Same photo appeared on rear jacket of companion book, How To Torture Your Husband (1948).
