Richie Rich Cartoon from the Artist Himself

I got an email a week or 2 ago from someone who read my article on Moho (the animation software) and was looking for a copy of the documentation. I've been helping him try to get started with it. Turns out, the guy is Ernie Colon, who drew the Richie Rich and Casper comic books for 25 years. I read quite a few issues of those things as a kid, so this brought back some memories.

He sent me a drawing of Richie Rich and Cadbury the butler as a thank you for helping him out. It arrived last night in perfect condition (you never know with the post office) and is now sitting ready for me to go get it framed.

I took a photo of it at an angle, attempting to show it off without violating either Mr. Colon's copyright or the trademarked characters. If it disappears, it's because I didn't go far enough in that effort.

commented on 3/28/2006 I loved reading Richie Rich as a kid. There isn't an ebay bid out there that would snatch that gift from my hands. :-) Enjoy it!
