The collection was acquired from editorial cartoonist Glenn "Marty" Stein, who started drawing editorial cartoons and illustrations for the Orlando Business Journal. Afterwards, Marty worked for The Apopka Chief, and finally 8½ years for La Prensa (Orlando), a Spanish-language newspaper where he created weekly editorial cartoons in Spanish. In addition, he wrote and drew his original comic strip El Oasis for over 3½ years. The cartoon art collection consists of published and unpublished original drawings, sketches, comic strips, 1990 US Waveski Championships items, and one piece of editorial cartoon art by Bruce Shanks (1955).
