Its pretty obvious, based on their styles posted here and elsewhere, that Goodenough trained under Chuck Thorndike, who you profiled here last June 17th.
Everything I find on Goodenough tells me he seldom, if ever, left New England, so its likely Thorndike taught a class in Boston, or Tap went to Silvermine Connecticut in 1935 or earlier. I'm ruling out just book learning since Chuck gained a copyright on one strip.
Why or how he inherited Brenner's gig is curious. Maybe this whole syndicate is the result of a class project :)
More later today on Goodenough's family and career that I pulled earlier.
