Sunday Comics

The Sunday comics used to be such a treat. Week after week a phantasmagoria of HUGE pages of art delivered right to the door! A wide variety of cartooning styles were a delight to the eyes, colored and printed with care. 

One of the most visually exciting artists of the time was Alex Raymond with his Jungle Jim and Flash Gordon presented in tandem, usually on the front page. 

When I was a kid, I found this page in my grandmother's basement with old newspapers, waiting to be used as dropcloths. Grandma said 'sure, take em', and boy I did, along with some others, and kept them safe all these years. 

This page was so big I had to scan it in 6 sections.
