Paul Coker Jr. – Help 1961

- Of course, we all recognize the style of Paul Coker Jr. if only from all the Rankin-Bass animated shows he designed. Bill Peckmann has sent me two stories Coker did for HELP magazine back in Jan. & Feb. 1961. Here’s Bill:

    Here are two Paul Coker Jr. story assignments that he did for Harvey Kurtzman’s HELP magazine in the early 1960′s. Harvey always had a great eye for new talent and Paul did not let him down. It’s very nice to see Coker in continuity form, beautifully designed characters and panels!
