A remarkably sought after image, Howdy Doody is one of ten iconic screenprints in Warhol’s 1981 “Myths” portfolio. Unlike many of his well-known works, Warhol’s reproduction of Howdy Doody’s image is not appropriated from the mass media: it is based on a photograph of the original Howdy Doody taken by Warhol himself. It is stamped in black on verso and bears the printer’s chop mark. Other notable images in this portfolio are The Star (Great Garbo), Superman, Uncle Sam, The Witch (from the Wizard of Oz) , Dracula, Mammy, Mickey Mouse, Santa Claus, and The Shadow (Warhol). Warhol also made paintings of these subjects.
Warhol began his multi-faceted and prolific career in art, film and publishing as a commercial artist and illustrator for newspapers and magazines. He was often commissioned by fashion houses for his “charming and often whimsical in tone, typified by outline drawings using a delicate blotted line that gave even the originals a printed appearance,” Marco Livingstone wrote. Specifically, his highly fashionable 1955–56 ads for the shoe manufacturers I. Miller & Sons helped him receive major awards from the Art Directors Club. As a self-proclaimed “Business Artist” or “Art Businessman,” Warhol said, and strongly believed, “making money is art and working is art and good business is the best art.”
