Description
George Herriman the 15th Krazy Kat Sunday Comic Strip Original Art dated 7-29-16 (King Features Syndicate, 1916). This super early episode, only the 15th Sunday published, features the three principal Krazy Kat characters at play -- Ignatz Mouse, Offisa Bull Pupp, and Krazy Kat herself. The topic at hand is a spirited lovers' chase. Considered by many to be the greatest cartoonist of the twentieth century, Herriman was admired in his day by such literary luminaries as e. e. cummings, William Randolph Hearst, and Gilbert Seldes. This side-splitting Sunday has an image area of 18.25" x 22", and it has been matted and framed to an overall size of 25" x 28". The art is in Excellent condition. From the Jerry Weist Collection.More information about George Herriman. See also: Herriman, George Artist.
