No Honest Man Need Fear Cartoons:

The Homer Davenport Story & Book Signing

10:00 am to 11:30 am

Homer Davenport (1867-1912) was Oregon’s first media super-star. Yet, few outside his hometown of Silverton, OR are even aware of the impact this self-described “country boy” had on society. His unique rural Oregon upbringing, along with a supportive and nurturing home life, equipped Davenport with the intellectual tools and the artistic skills needed to hit the ground running. He arrived on the scene during a perfect storm of technology and public sentiment, between the end of the "Gilded Age" and the beginning of the "Progressive Era."

Presented by Silverton Country Historical Society President and author, Gus Frederick. Signed copies of his books may be purchased at the show. This was previously rescheduled from March 8. The "Talks & Events" listing on the AHC page list it as POSTPONED. This is in error.
