Special section: Kelsie T. Harder's lost cartoon gem For Whom the Balloon Tows. Last seen in a very limited edition back in 1969. After many, many months, Tangerine Press finally tracked down Mr Harder, who gave his permission to reprint this forgotten classic of the US small press. Some of you may be familiar with his work in the double issue of Jon and Lou Webb's The Outsider 4/5 (1969).
