At the first Chicago Comic Convention in 1977, I believe it was, at the Conrad Hilton hotel on Lake Shore drive, I briefly had the pleasure of meeting Harvey Kurtzman in the lobby of the Hotel. I stumbled through it by introducing myself as friends of Jay Lynch and Skip Williamson. Harvey was very gracious and smiled with a big grin as though he was re calling memories of his own children. I remember,he had some good words of encouragement and wished us well, I was elated for two months easy. Bob Cox
