According to his obituary in the N.Y. Herald Tribune, he wrote and
illustrated children's books in his later years. For eight years during
the 1930s he lived in Wayne Township, N.J., and drew cartoons for the
'Jersey Journal.' According to this source, when he became seriously
ill in 1941 and was unable to fulfill his contracts, he trained his
wife Winifred Leyton Bowers to draw in his place.
