Former home of Chris Ware hits the market
A 1906 Arts & Crafts style home recently hit the market at 137 S. Humphrey in Oak Park. The house is a great example of Oak Park’s historic housing stock and is also notable for its ties to noted artist Chris Ware, a cartoonist who has been awarded numerous Eisner and Harvey awards, and whose book, Jimmy Corrigan: the Smartest Kid on Earth, won the Guardian First Book Award in the UK. Ware’s New Yorker covers often featured images of small-town life that looked a lot like Oak Park.
