KENNETH KLING (1870 - 1970) was the creator of the strip Joe and Asbestos, about horse racing. The strip was incredibly popular, not least because Kling, who would name real horses in the strip, had a knack for picking winners, and the readers came to believe he was giving out inside tips! Except for a brief break, Kling drew the strip until his death in 1970. A splendid gift offering for the hard-to-buy for race fan.
