Product Description
Rear cover notes: "Philip 'Gil' Gildersleeve, W1CJD, contributed over 1500 cartoons and drawings to QST and the ARRL for almost 40 years. This book presents only a small portion of the 'best of Gil.' Gil was a avid radio amateur, devoted family man and exceptionally active in the community. For several years he worked as a radio operator aboard merchant ships and later on was News Editor of the Middletown (CT) Press. He was a member of Who's Who in American Art. Although Gil became a silent key in 1966 his characters live on. Most DXers would love to have a 'Jeeves' to handle the tough chores around the shack. What radio club doesn't have members who mirror those of the Podunk Hollow Radio Club, particularly on Field Day! This book is a tribute to W1CJD, and we're sure you will have as much fun reading and viewing Gil's work as we did assembling the material."
