I looked through it again.

The level of detail in these sketches is amazing. These notebooks are a national treasure! ThumbsUp

Yes, such a treasure! I have a friend who journals every day, cartoons in beautiful small sketchbooks that she handmakes. Truly amazing when somebody can document things that way.

My friend, Frank Boggs was featured in a PBS documentary about the artists of WWII.

You can spend hours looking at all the artwork.
