Original hand-inked four panel comic strip, 22.5 x 6.5, featuring the boss of a NY newspaper cartoon syndicate berating a cartoonist, pressing him to create a character more horrible than his last, which was “half man and half marinated herring, 8069 reads dropped dead at the first sight of him!,” signed on the last panel in ink, “Al Capp.” Double-matted to an overall size of 27 x 11.25. The expected pencil notations, a few trivial spots of soiling, and a small newspaper clipping affixed to the bottom right corner of the last panel, otherwise fine condition. Oversized.
