  1. Hello All,

     

    I have a couple items up on eBay for, 2 daily comic strips, one done by Walt Kelly and the other done by Frank Godwin.

     

    The Walt Kelly item (Pogo) is particularly interesting for it features Tammananny Tiger, a major inspiration for Hobbes of Calvin & Hobbes, please take a look:

    Frank Godwin's Rusty Riley daily strip comes from the Haunted Castle/Raft story that is highly sought after:

  2. Hello All,

    I just recently posted a Rip Kirby strip by Alex Raymond and found out that the first panel was probably a swipe of a cover that appeared 17 years earlier in a newspaper supplement.  Well after researching the lion tamer (Clyde Beatty) images it has me interested in vintage circus advertising now! Has anybody else researched an art piece etc.,  and dove into another hobby?

    Btw here is the artwork:
