right Rowland Bragg Wilson (August 3, 1930 - June 28, 2005) was an American gag cartoonist and animation production artist who did watercolor cartoon illustrations for leading magazines, notably ''Playboy'' (beginning in 1967) and ''TV Guide''. His work was usually signed Rowland B. Wilson. ==''1000 Jokes''== Born in Dallas, Texas, the young Wilson was passionate about the funnies and the movies. He was an honors student in liberal arts at the University of Texas, where he drew cartoons for the college humor magazine, ''Texas Ranger''. A number of those cartoons were reprinted by Dell's ''1000 Jokes'' in an ongoing feature, "Varsity Varieties". This led to a series of caricature covers Wilson did for ''1000 Jokes''.〔(Eli Stein )〕 Wilson did his graduate work in art history at Columbia University.〔(Koppel, Lily. "Rowland B. Wilson, 74, Creator of Wry Cartoons, Is Dead", ''The New York Times'', July 10, 2005 )〕 He was an art director with Young & Rubicam and moved to Weston, Connecticut. Wilson illustrated children's books including "Tubby and the Lantern" and attracted much attention with his series of cartoons for the New England Life Insurance ad campaign. He also illustrated humorous books, including Steve Allen's ''Bigger Than a Breadbox'', as well as compiling a book of his own cartoons, "The Whites of Their Eyes". His gag cartoons were published in ''Esquire'', ''Playboy'', ''The New Yorker'', ''The Saturday Evening Post'', ''Collier's'' and other magazines.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Rowland B.
