Afin d’appréhender la culture de la bande dessinée américaine avant le comic book, cette étude prosopographique analyse un échantillon d’adolescent·es ayant participé dans les années 1930 aux concours de dessin de la revue Open Road for Boys. L’article explore des questions de démographie, leurs professions adultes, leurs vocations, et les potentiels réseaux de participation ; tout cela afin de comprendre mieux la jeunesse qui participait à ces concours quasiment mensuels. Un nombre considérable de participant·es à ces concours a poursuivi une carrière artistique professionnelle en tant que dessinateurs, artistes commerciaux, animateurs et d’autres domaines connexes. |
