Commentary: William Rouse, author of “Hickory Pete,” sent a complimentary letter to the Editor of Colliers Weekly after the publication of his illustrated story. He wrote: “Thank you for the cover you gave me with ‘Hickory Pete.’ I should like to thank, also, Mr. Schoonover, the artist, who caught the idea in his illustrations. It’s a pleasant feeling to have a story handled like that.” (archives, correspondence)
