Herriman Saturday

November 5 1909 -- Another Baron Mooch strip that was omitted from Blackbeard's book. This one  has Herriman stealing a gag from Winsor McCay's Dream of the Rarebit Fiend. The gag swipe is unfortunate (and a rarity for Herriman), but even so not all is bad. To atone for his sin Herriman offers us a lovely graphical flourish, framing the entire strip as a word and art balloon for the sleeping Baron.

Which Blackbeard book are you referring to?

I think the book referenced is from the Hyperion Press series in 1977. Blackbeard was very shoddy historian, and the Hyperions were typically full of errors, including the self evident claim that they were all "The complete" first year, or classic year or even entire run of whatever title was being reprinted.

Wish You Were Here, from Walter Wellman

Here's a later Walter Wellman card, I'm guessing it probably dates to the 1930s, heyday of the heavy linen look. This risque card was published by the Asheville Post Card Co. of North Carolina, and this card was coded C229.

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 8: The Cover Series of Shorter Stories

Well, hey, if we have a series of longer stories, that must mean we have a series of shorter ones, right? So this is that. I supposed you could also call it the Virginia Huget series, since her lovely art graced it consistently until September 1929.

I am able to track this series back to October 1927, which means it just possibly might dovetail with a missing section of that Dan Smith series (part 1 of this index). It doesn't rejoin that series in September 1928, though, so maybe not. There just aren't enough online newspapers to track this stuff with any real assurance. I seem to be joining Adventurous Anne in mid-story, so this series does go back at least a little farther.

I tracked this series in the Philadelphia Inquirer after wasting a lot of time indexing another paper that turned out to be running it really late and sometimes out of order. At the end of 1929, when this index ends, the material seems to dovetail with what I indexed in part 2 of this index. However, in the Inquirer at least, this material was copyrighted by King Features Syndicate throughout, whereas that one starts off credited to Newspaper Feature Service. Ah, what a tangled web we weave ....

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 7: The Cover Series of Longer Stories (1930-33)

This is the second part of the index for the 'longer stories' series, this one covering 1930 to the apparent end of it in 1933.

This index was compiled based on the Cincinnati Enquirer starting in 1930, then in January 1931 I had to switch to the Miami News when the microfilmer of the Enquirer decided that Sunday magazines weren't worth the time to photograph. The Miami News dropped the cover in July of that year, so then I switched to the Minneapolis Tribune. The Tribune got me to the apparent end of the series, which I was able to confirm in a second paper.

The syndicate, which had been International Feature Service, changed to King Features Syndicate in January 1932. I believe this is when IFS was phased out as a separate syndication company for Hearst.

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 6: The Cover Series of Longer Stories (thru 1929)

Our next series of magazine covers is indexed starting in July 1926, premiering with the very long Gloria - The American Girl series by Penrhyn Stanlaws.

While no subsequent cover series would rival Gloria in length, my search for an identity of this syndicate offering leads me to call it the 'long stories' series. The syndicate was originally King Features Syndicate, but changed to International Feature Service in early 1929 for some reason. This change happened in the middle of a story, so I don't think there's any chance that I somehow conflated two separate series.

If you look back at part 5 of this index series, you'll think that today's series is merely a continuation of  the so-called 'romantic cover series', since the dates mesh perfectly. However, I do have samples in my collection of Gloria - The American Girl running earlier than this (back to 1925), so I think I have just not been successful in tracking this series back to its true origin. I have found the early Gloria series running in the San Francisco Call, which is not, as far as I know, available online yet.

One addditonal note; if my inventory doesn't lie, there seems to have been an earlier series of Nell Brinkley's Pretty Polly - I show one from January 1927 somewhere in my collection. Or I mistyped?
 
We'll cover this series through the end of 1929 today, and pick up the balance of the series tomorrow. I tracked this series through the end of today's post in the Minneapolis Tribune.

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 5: The American Weekly Offshoot 'Romantic' Series

It turns out in my magazine cover research that in 1921 you could get your American Weekly Hearst covers in two flavors: one with the masthead with which we're familiar, or one with no masthead at all and copyrighted by International Feature Service.

That practice seems to have halted in mid-August 1921, when the Dan Smith cover series was inaugurated and took over for the International Feature Service-branded  American Weekly.

However, it wasn't quite that simple. It seems that you could choose another new (?) series, also syndicated by IFS, that instead of Dan Smith covers offered what I call the 'romantic cover' option. This series featured lots of pretty girls as is typical of the Hearst covers, but these ones are focused on romance. In other words, looking to please the female audience more than the male.

I began tracking this series in the Butte Miner, where due to some slight crossover with the Dan Smith series at the beginning I believe that the Miner runs their covers a week later than intended. The series runs in the Miner through the end of 1923, after which I switched to the Minneapolis Tribune, filling in a long unavailable section of that from the Tampa Tribune. The Minneapolis Tribune stopped using this series in June 1926, and I can find no other paper that used it any later.

Herriman Saturday

November 4 1909 -- Poetry makes the headlines in 1909 when two poets spar over what has been deemed an ungentlemanly slap at a British society dame.

William Watson penned the poem "The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue", later admitting that the subject of his poison penmanship was Margot Asquith (wife of the Prime Minister) along with her daughter Violet:

She is not old, she is not young,
The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue.
The haggard cheek, the hungering eye,
The poisoned words that wildly fly,

The famished face, the fevered hand,
Who slights the worthiest in the land,
Sneers at the just, condemns the brave,
And blackens goodness in its grave.

In truthful numbers be she sung,
The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue;
Concerning whom, Fame hints at things
Told but in shrugs and whisperings:

Ambitious from her natal hour,
And scheming all her life for power;
With little left of seemly pride;
With venomed fangs she cannot hide;

Who half makes love to you to-day,
To-morrow gives her guest away.

* * * * *
Burnt up within by that strange soul
She cannot slake, or yet control:
Malignant-lipped, unkind, unsweet;
Past all example indiscreet;

Hectic, and always overstrung, -
The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue.

To think that such as she can mar
Names that among the noblest are!
That hands like hers can touch the springs
That move who knows what men and things?

That on her will their fates have hung!
The Woman with the Serpent's Tongue.


Richard LaGallienne, A British poet who had emigrated to the U.S., was so angry about the poem that he decided to pen an answer, titled  The Poet with the Coward's Tongue:

Made out of words, to sneer and sing?
A thing of words to scan and scan,
Yet dares to sign himself a man!
He's growing old, he is not young --
The Poet with the Coward's Tongue.

Was it a woman long ago
Went through the fires of her young womb
To bear this man who sings this song --
The Poet with the Coward's Tongue?

In truthful numbers he be sung --
The Poet with the Coward's Tongue --
Made out of words, to sneer and sing;
A thing of words, a paper thing.
A little book of classic song --
The Poet with the Coward's Tongue.

Think not the woman he betrayed
Name all unknown -- is thus portrayed,
Poor poet starved for her strange eyes,
Despairs, tells all of us strange lies,
But there's an answer to his song --
O, Woman with the Serpent's Tongue!

O, Poet with the Coward's Tongue.
Come to New York and you shall know,
O, Singer of the Coward's Song,
His fate who sings a woman so.

Come to New York and face the men
Who sing not, yet whose life is song,
Because they love their women and would die
Rather than tell a William Watson lie
About a woman -- even in a song,
O, Poet with the Coward's Tongue.

ENVOI
Was he a 'guest' who dares to wrong
His hostess in so foul a song,
O, Poet with the Coward's Tongue?

Wish You Were Here, from Albert Carmichael

Yet another entry from Carmichael's "I Love My Wife But Oh You Kid" series, more formally known as Series 565 from Taylor & Pratt.

Interesting thing here is that this postcard was sent by Belle to her friend Marcia. The hand-written "Belle" underneath the damsel would seem to be a rather blatant admission that she flirts with married men. Get the smelling salts!

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 4: The 1930s 'Continuing Series' Series Divergent Version of 1935 and On

A new week has begun and we'll continue on our quest to index Hearst magazine cover series.

I sure wish I had some way to title these series so that I could talk with some clarity about them. But I'm not even sure of what I'm doing, much less how to identify which is which. So, rather than trying to come up with some cockamamie name, I'm going to tell you that the series we're going to trace today is one that diverged from the series we talked about last week in 1935. Why this happened I couldn't even begin to guess.

What I can say is that this series tends to concentrate on pin-ups created by many very big name artists. I'm talking Petty, Barclay, Christy, La Gatta, Armstrong, etc.

This divergent series was found in  the El Paso Times.

Perhaps the most interesting discovery for comic strip fans is that Alex Raymod contributed three superb covers (above). I have none in tearsheet form, so the best I can offer are images from the microfilm.

I gave up writing this index at the end of 1937, as I didn't see any series developing. Looking ahead, this cover series went on into the 1940s, looking pretty much like they stuck to their guns of featuring mostly pin-up covers.There are lots of great covers, just not really in my research focus. If anyone has the time and inclination to continue this index, I'll be very happy to publish it.

The Hearst Sunday Newspaper Magazine Cover Indexes Part 3: The 1930s 'Continuing Series' Series, Continued

By 1935, this series that was so dynamic in  the early 1930s was getting a little less exciting. However, what they now lacked in interesting series, they more than made up for with first rate cover artists.

A quick note that I noticed in another paper that the Penrhyn Stanlaws cover series of 1935 was headlined "Girlologies" -- the Inquirer elected to drop that title. Can't say I blame them ...

The Philadelphia Inquirer at this point started making their own magazine covers in-house. Can't say as I blame them, because this cover series was about to go way downhill. A new series titled America on Parade, which was a real yawner, was about to begin. I was able to switch from the Inquirer to the Minneapolis Tribune to continue this index, but not for long:

5/2/37	America On Parade - Coronation in the Sport of Kings (text by Frank G. Menke)	Wesley Dennis	KFS

At this point the Minneapolis Tribune said the heck with Hearst, and started instead running the World Museum Diorama pages offered by Esquire Features. This Hearst cover series may have continued, but I frankly couldn't bring myself to search for it very hard.

Next time we'll look at a series that diverged from this one in September 1935.
