Inspired Tribute to Ralph Graczak | Artist Behind “Our Own Oddities"
1 0
This video is a special tribute to my grandfather, Ralph Graczak, a renowned artist in St. Louis, best known for his comic strip “Our Own Oddities” that ran in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch from 1940 to 1991. His artwork captured the quirky and unusual stories submitted by locals, creating a beloved feature for over 50 years.
Inspired by Marvel's iconic intros, this video takes some of Ralph’s original illustrations and transforms them into a cinematic sequence. The final logo features his signature - just as he signed his pieces.
Enjoy this homage to a remarkable artist who brought humor and curiosity to generations of readers.
