INITIATED GIBSON

DeBeck knew how 10 draw long
before nc could read or write. His
early idol was Charles Dana Glib
son, creator of the famous Gibson
Girl, and young DeBeck learned
TO initiate Gibson's drawings, com
plete with signature, so expertly
that they were often mistaken for
originals.
DeBcck never considered him
self a master craftsman. lie once
remarked that Spark Plug wore
a blanket because he couldn't draw
a horse. Nevertheless, he had a
high degree OF skill.
He had a rare sense Of humor
and a flair for nonsensical and
hilarious language. Along with
Barney he created such phrases
as tho "Heebie- jeebies. " Horse
feathers" "OSkie-wowow' and
Sweet mama They became the
rage.
