The Cartoon Art Museum is celebrating this milestone with the exhibition 60 Years of Beetle Bailey: A Tribute to Mort Walker. Brian Walker, who served as the curator of The Legacy of Mort Walker: 50 Years of Beetle Bailey at The International Museum of Cartoon Art in 2000, has selected the highlights from that historic retrospective for this exhibition.
