Klappentext
"The Jayhawk, the University of Kansas's legendary mascot, has represented the University for more than 100 years and is recognizable around the world. Multiple students and artists drew the Jayhawk in the twentieth century, including the long-legged Jayhawk drawn by Daniel Henry "Hank" Maloy in 1912 and the militaristic, fighting Jayhawk of 1941 created by Dr. Eugene "Yogi" Williams. Six different Jayhawks from 1912 to 1946 have been identified by the University as the most historically significant but there are many, many more that have been discovered in hundreds of pieces of ephemera, newspaper accounts, student scrapbooks, and University publications, all housed in the University Archives. The book is organized thematically, telling the story of the Jayhawk's incarnation in one and three dimensions: origins, as mascot, as part of student life and student publications, in advertising, as merchandise, and more. The text is highlighted by over 300 photographs, most of them in color and many of items never seen by the public before"
