Label TextAbian A. Wallgren, better known as "Wally" Wallgren, drew cartoons for the Philadelphia Public Ledger and Washington Post before World War I. After service in France during the World War I, he contributed 'Helpful Hints' cartoons to The Stars and Stripes, satirizing the absurdity of army regulations and the differences between the officer corps and the ordinary solder. In 1939, Wallgren created the newspaper strip Hoosegow Herman.
