CHRISTY, Howard Chandler (1873-1952) painter, illustrator.
Born Morgan County, Ohio, 10 January 1873.
Died New York City, 4 March 1952.
Note: Not to be confused with Edward L. Christle (q.v.),
who designed the USS Constellation Medal struck by
Bastian Bros (q.v.); this is an example of a double
coincidence of similar names of both artists and subjects!
