Chester Gould - Dick Tracy Sunday Comic Strip Original Art, dated 7-13-47 (Chicago Tribune, 1947).

Chester Gould filled his feature with a panoply of hi-tech gadgets, goodies such as the two-way wrist radio, the space coupe, and the atomic light. In this charming Sunday, Dick used his new toy to take a group portrait of B.O.Plenty and Gravel Gertie with their newborn baby, Sparkle Plenty. The image area of the strip is 27" x 18". Each panel of the Sunday was glued to a larger support page; otherwise the art is in Excellent condition. A tear sheet of the strip, printed in a tabloid format is included in this lot.From the collection of Larry Doucet.
