Today in Comics History, July 27: Happy birthday, Jesse Marsh!

Born on this day in 1907: Jesse Marsh, comics artist (Tarzan, Korak, Gene Autry Comics, John Carter of Mars, Four Color) and animator (Make Mine Music and Pluto cartoons for Disney). Dark Horse has published several volumes that reprint Marsh's Tarzan work, which I highly recommend (even tho' only the first two volumes have Marsh art on the covers). His work on these is absolutely beautiful.
