By Diana Cook
Roy Doty has been cranking out illustrations since the 1940′s and is probably best known for his Wordless Workshop home improvement comic series that ran as a syndicated feature for 50 years. Every year Doty hand draws a new Chrismas card to send out to his friends and associates, with selections from the 1950′s through the aughts, Doty’s Holiday cards feature puzzles, contraptions, and other creative mechanisms. We’ve pulled a few of are favorites, you can see the rest of Roy Doty’s legendary annual Christmas Cards at Hogan’s Alley.
