Dink Shannon

Dink Shannon was an early 20th century American cartoonist.
Shannon's career is only documented for the years 1902 to 1909. He drew a number of strips, including:

Sammy Small
Mister Pest – Book Agent
Mooney Miggles and the Magic Cap
Sallie Snooks, Stenographer

Sallie Snooks, Stenographer was the first strip to feature a female office worker, preceding Somebody's Stenog, Winnie Winkle, and Tillie the Toiler by more than a decade. Sammy Small was a bad-little-boy strip in the mold of The Katzenjammer Kids.
Shannon worked for the World Color Printing syndicate of St. Louis, which distributed a "boiler plate" Sunday section. World Color Printing would sometimes assign its cartoonists, who were free-lancers, to previously existing strips, and Shannon also drew the strip Say! Did This Ever Happen To You?, which had been created by C. H. Wellington, in 1905 and 1906. He was succeeded by a person signing as McKee.
