For the Artists: Joseph Gleeson

[Danvarner@aol.com]

If you have a copy of F.A.Lucas' book, _Animals of the Past_, which is a 
century old now, you've seen the restorations of not only Chas.R.Knight, but 
also 
those by Joseph M. Gleeson. In fact, they collaborated on several drawings:

Gleeson also made the color plates for Kipling's _Just So Stories_. I've just 
discovered that these are now available on-line (see url below). I find them 
very beautiful, especially his kangaroo and his horseshoe crab plates. I wish 
we knew more about him and his work. DV
