[Photograph 2012.201.OVZ001.4319]

Photograph used for a story in the Daily Oklahoman newspaper. Caption: "Hall Duncan displays and African grade school primer he wrote, illustrated and had published. Oklahoma City's "international tramp" has come to stay. Four 23 years he was jogged through schools in China, England, Ireland, South Africa and Oklahoma. He left to broaden his skills as an artist; he returned a teacher with an international stature in education. Hall Duncan has come home before. The first time it was 1950 and after he survived a voyage from France aboard a tramp steamer, his father tagged him an "international tramp." He outgrew the knickname. Years away from his native city also seemed to have mellowed his enthusiam for globe-troting. First the orient's mystery called him so he left Oklahoma A&M to become the college's first exchange student in China. Boots and a cowboy hat became his trademark. But the Orient whetted his appetite for more strange lands."
