I love how I can just ask a question on this weblog and, nine times outta ten, someone will e-mail me the answer within the hour.
The fine cartoonist, Nate Butler — who I haven't seen since we had lunch at the WonderCon — writes to note that in one edition of the National Cartoonists Society album, Al Smith wrote and even hand-lettered his biography. It says in there that he was born on March 21…so that's a pretty good source of info. Thanks, Nate. Next lunch is on you.
