2 covers from 1944

Any one have any hand painted cartoon style covers by this artist?

Both of these have inserts, and in one letter it states that Wm Carlsons art was mentioned in 'Life Magazine'. I have been unable to find out anything further and would appreciate any information.

WOW these are amazing and highly sought after! It was said that Walt Disney done some of these during WWI. and of course there are the "Dr. Seuss" (Geisel)covers from WWII. Great score! I'll be curiously watching for further information!
