The Treasure chest for California boys and girls
The Treasure Chest was a 1926 children's periodical published in San Francisco by Wooster & Dickson for California boys and girls, collecting their writings, amusements and games. Its pen-and-ink cartoons show a girl with a bobbed head flinging her arms up as a tangle of scattered papers lies at her feet, a uniformed postman reading a letter with a satchel slung over his shoulder, a boy blowing a horn on a lawn, and a classroom of pupils at desks under the banner YOUR PAGE, with a designer able to take from them bold silhouette figures, clean outline drawing, and comic lettering set into a masthead.
