Wellman
Herschel C. Logan
HERSCHEL C. LOGAN (1901-1987) was a printmaker who concentrated on everyday scenes of Kansas in the 1930s. He made many woodcuts of farmhouses set among trees and fields beneath wide skies. Born on April 19, 1901 in Missouri and raised in Winfield, Kansas, he studied at the Chicago Academy of Art. His job at McCormick Armstrong printing company brought him to Wichita, where he became a prolific woodblock printer during the height of the Arts and Crafts Movement. He was an award-winning commercial artist and wood engraver who began printing and publishing miniature books after his retirement in 1972. He was an authority on American firearms and edged weapons, as well as miniature printing presses, of which he had a large collection. He and his wife Anne owned Loganne Press based in Santa Ana, California, where Logan died on December 8, 1987, aged 86. PAUL ISELIN WELLMAN (1895-1966) was an American journalist, popular history and novel writer, and screenwriter, known for his books of the Wild West: Kansas, Oklahoma, Great Plains. The Hollywood movies Cheyenne, The Walls of Jericho, Jubal, Apache, The Comancheros, and The Iron Mistress are based on Wellman novels.
