GORDON John Sloan

Raised in Hamilton, He was employed in a railway office at 16 years. Three years later he joined the Art Department of the Howell Lithographing Company and attended night classes at the Hamilton Art School. By opening a studio and painting watercolours he was able to accumulate enough money to go to Paris in 1895 where he studied drawing at Julien’s and under Constant and Laurens. He stayed in London, Edinburgh and Glasgow returning to Canada in 1897. Again in Hamilton, he designed book covers, illustrations for Canadian Magazine, the Christmas issues of the Toronto Globe and decorative drawings for Fraser’s books published by Charles Scribner. He illustrated the Master of Life by W.D. Lighthall of Montréal. He was a member of the Ontario Society of Artists and head of the Art Department of the Hamilton Technical School.

GOOD Edmond

Edmond Good a self portrait? Dime Comics, 1-9: Inside Front cover.

Born July 1, 1910 in Saco Maine U.S.A., he came to Canada at age 10 years when his Canadian parents returned to settle in Hamilton Ontario. He attended the Hamilton Art School where he trained as a commercial artist. He married Audré Harrison in 1936 and had two children Aledra and Barton. With a family and one would think an established career in commercial art it’s a bit surprising he joined Bell Features. There he created “Rex Baxter”, a “Flash Gordon” type character for Dime Comics,1, Feb. 1942. One might think this move unusual but both Ed Furness and Syd Stein followed the same pattern and Good like Furness and Stein would move back and forth between the two occupations. Another interesting parallel exists between Audré Good and Pat Dingle wife, both of these women helped their husbands by contributing stories to Bell Feature magazines.

Good became Bell Feature’s principal cover artist, doing covers for: Active Comics, 11&13; Commando Comics, 1-6; Dime Comic, 1-13;, and WOW Comics, 8-13. In addition, Good did covers for Canadian pulp magazines like Thrilling Detective Stories and a Canadian reprint version of Weird Tales which also emerged during the war years.

Late 1943, early 1944 Good left Canada to work in the U.S. To find out about that aspect of his career go to Ivan Kocmarek’s excellent article listed below.
