Benson & Bagley at BYU

1- Benson, Steve &

Patrick Bagley. I Am

Appalled... Provo, UT:

BYU Chapter of the

Society of Professional

Journalists, Sigma Delta

Chi, 1979. First Edition.

69pp. Quarto [28 cm x

21 cm] Illustrated

mustard colored stapled

wrappers. Near fine.

Ends with a two-page

biographical sketch of

both artists by Nelson

Wadsworth. A "greatest

hits" of Daily Universe

cartoons with selected

letters to the editor.

Before these two were

assembling a cabinet full

of awards (including a

Pulitzer for Benson - and

it is just a matter of time

for Bagley), and

humoring and angering

countless readers, they

were just two students at

BYU holding up a mirror.

This collection of

cartoons had a miniscule

print run and is rare.

"Now, as Pat and Steve

prepare to graduate and

embark on professional careers, we are proud to have had a small part in their development. I Am

Appalled...will be a great souvenir for students to recall just how it was here at BYU in 1977-79, as seen

through the pens of two talented young cartoonists." - Nelson Wadsworth p.69
