From Wikipedia:John Alton Collins (7 October 1917 – 16 September 2007) was born in Washington D.C., and moved with his family to Canada in 1920. He studied art at Sir George Williams University and the Montreal School of Fine Arts. In 1939, he became the first staff cartoonist for the Montreal Gazette, where he worked until his retirement in 1982. Many of Collins's cartoons included the character Uno Who, a cash-strapped taxpayer who wore only a bankruptcy barrel. He was considered a gentleman among editorial cartoonists, with a reputation of speed and reliability. John Collins died aged 89 on September 17, 2007.FP75
