Cheyenne and Maverick drawings in black and white

At he beginning of each episode of these tv shows there are drawings in black and white. Cheyenne always started with a cowboy with hat on that looks much like Clint Walker and Maverick had a drawing that helped explain the upcoming episode. Does anyone know who did the drawings??? Looks like the same work for both. I thought about trying to reach Warner bros studios and have traded emails with Clint's wife from their website... I suggested he get some to offer (signed) on his website but they said they would attempt to find out. I never heard anything more..It would be cool to have one signed by Clint and James
Garner... Any help would be appreciated..
thanks....

Early on in these TV series, there were etchings drawn for each episode. These depictions were also displayed before and after commercials during the show. This practice was discontinued after about a dozen episodes of Maverick in its first season, more with Cheyenne which premiered a couple of years befroe Maverick.

Did the first season of Cheyenne feature any etchings? Didn't they appear at the time of the Cheyenne theme song in the second season?

....the one showing the card game. Are all the other faces based on Leo Gordon? They look like him.
