This image of an original drawing was given to Mandarin Museum by Mr. Gamble. It clearly depicts the changes in Mandarin caused by growth and development in the area. A special collection of his digital images may be viewed at the Thomas G. Carpenter Library at University of North Florida, which houses over 2000 of Gamble’s cartoons on local and state events.
