You bring up a point that I'm going to bring up along the way as well, regarding Hamlin (and Walt Kelly), being the last of the old-school.Thomas Haller Buchananhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09278003392092477845noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347683455597417526.post-79856228524875068292011-03-26T08:34:43.758-07:002011-03-26T08:34:43.758-07:00These late V.

All the other old masters had long surrendered to the lifeless grid.<br /><br />I wish someone would do a book of the ALLEY OOP Sundays of the '50s and '60s. They are a hidden treasure of American newspaper comics.<br /><br />Thanks for these many fine postings.Frank M.

Cancer sucks. My thoughts and good wishes go out to you, Charlie.<br /><br />Thom, while I don't have any original Alley Oops from the newspapers, I do have some issues of the Funnies from 1936-1938 with reprints that I could rescan and send the Alley Oop pages from if you're looking for some more material. It at least has the virtue of being very, very early reprints!Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18312768583084063120noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-347683455597417526.post-55942693303563029042011-03-21T22:16:11.960-07:002011-03-21T22:16:11.960-07:00Hi Thom,
