Description

George Herriman Baron Bean Daily Comic Strip Original Art dated 12-28 (c. 1918). Three months before the Sunday Krazy Kat began, this domestic comedy strip debuted by the same artist -- George Herriman. Looking quite a bit like the popular Mutt and Jeff dailies, this feature starred the Baron, a tall, mustachioed poser and freeloader, usually accompanied by his faithful valet and sidekick, Grimes. Baron Bean is scarcely offered in the marketplace -- this is only the fourth episode we have offered to date. Note the classic "plop" take in the final panel. This episode, titled "A Very Sensible Idea, This One of Grimes'" has an image area of 26.5" x 6.5". Aside from some overall paper aging, heavy margin wear and foxing spots, and a three-inch tear at the lower left corner margin area, the art is in Good condition.
