Stand-Alone Beauty

Time to isolate another panel from the comics to celebrate its stand-alone beauty. This panel from the newspaper comics of 1912 looks more like an elegant kid's book illustration.

Like Buster Brown?

Hi Thom,

Amazing to think this was a newspaper panel. I thought he was the illustrator for Raggedy Ann and Andy, but I checked to be sure, and of course, he is. I love the fairies, and goblins, and such, and the little rodent like creatures. It makes me want to read what the panel was all about. Was there text with it?

Hi Annie,

There would've been text that ran beneath the panel, but I don't have that.
