Patrick McDonnell

In 2015, the National Cartoonists Society created a Star Wars themed poster that was sold at their booth at the San Diego Comic Con. Many cartoonists from the NCS created their own take of George Lucas’ famous characters, often including their own characters that they are known for. We are happy to be offering several of the original drawings by our members from that print in our eBay auctions.

Patrick McDonnell, the cartoonist of the widely loved syndicated comic strip Mutts created this little gem of a drawing on a 7x10” piece of Bristol board. Featuring McDonnell’s dog character Earl barking at Chewbacca, the delightful inked art itself measures 3x5” and comes signed by Patrick McDonnell. All the art and lettering was hand drawn - there are no paste-ups.

Be sure to visit our other auctions to see more Star Wars interpretations by other famous cartoonists!
