One of Harvey Kurtzman's last projects was a history of comics called FROM AARGH TO ZAP. This article from the June 1971 ESQUIRE was a rough draft he did 20 years earlier.
I'm not sure who Yrrah was. I've only seen his work in ESQUIRE, like this cartoon from the same issue. It's "Harry" spelled backwards so maybe that was his real name.

I am proud to say Yrrah was a Dutch cartoonist. You can find a short Dutch entry to wikipedia here: http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yrrah
