Comments on: A Conversation with Draw Stanley Shaw, Cartoonist http://www.cartoonistsleague.org/draw-stan-shaw/ Cartoonist's League of Absurd Washingtonians Sun, 23 Oct 2011 17:30:55 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.2.1 By: Duff Hendrickson http://www.cartoonistsleague.org/draw-stan-shaw/comment-page-1/#comment-1791 Duff Hendrickson Thu, 16 Dec 2010 08:41:05 +0000 http://www.cartoonistsleague.org/?p=699#comment-1791 I always respected Stan Shaw and his work, even back in the BedRock daze of cultural corruption, when Tacoma mobsters mixed with gas-huffing punksters in a sleazy nightclub inside a shady 6th avenue spaghetti joint. Mr Shaw was usually in the shadows, spinning throbbing sounds out of oily discs, and sketching the crime scene in time for the pulp they called a newspaper__ in the port city smell of rotten egg, cheap booze, and dangerous women. Stan Shaw handled whatever came his way. It was his beat. Shaw has the scars and India ink stains of a tough port-city history etched into his non-acid brain, yet he sustains the rough-cut sturdy line of a tide-flats saw mill, with integrity to match.
