Wally - His Cartoons of the A.E.F.

Wally Wallgren’s Wally - His Cartoons of the A.E.F., published in the military newspaper Stars and Stripes beginning in 1919, collects the single-issue work of the artist-cartoonist who chronicled the American Expeditionary Forces with a warm, wry eye. Wallgren, the sole writer and artist, drew from his own service to capture the everyday life, humor, and camaraderie of soldiers in World War I. This slim volume stands as a direct, unvarnished artifact of doughboy culture, preserving the voice of a veteran cartoonist whose work resonated with the troops he depicted.
