Major Pete Millar Retrospective Announced



The Pasadena Museum of California Art has announced Tales From The Strip, a retrospective of publications and original art from the late car cartoonist Pete Millar. This is worthy of note in that a) it's the first major Millar exhibit I can remember, and b) Millar was the most significant talent working in the once thriving arena of car cartoons, an all-but-forgotten avenue for comics expression that was hugely popular in the '60s before tapering hard in the next decade. Here's the PDF:

The Millar family helped with the original art selected, and seems excited about the show. I'm tempted to drive up from San Diego.
