American cartoonist (1902-1991) known for his outdoorsy Mark Trail comic strip. Two items: an original hand-inked 'Mark Trail' four-panel comic daily strip from October 13, 1952, 23 x 7, signed and inscribed in the top border in ink, "To Ken Brown, with all my good wishes, Ed Dodd"; and a vintage glossy 10 x 8 photo of Dodd camping with his husky, signed and inscribed in fountain pen, "To Ken Brown, with my good wishes, Ed Dodd, 1953.” In very good to fine condition, with scattered creasing to the photo.
