Comments:
there's been two collections of Eisner's "hawks of the sea". I have the earlier (80s?) edition. Like many of us who own too much stuff, I cant get to it - it's in the bookpacked room (we cant call it a library, you can walk frontways in a library). I seem to recall that the first collection had a couple of pages that had to be translated from Spanish tearsheets provided by Al Williamson. This at least "proves" publication, if not in US papers.

Hi Steven -
Yes, I have the collection, and the strips were definitely published in comic books and outside the U.S. What I'm looking for is proof of U.S. newspaper publication.

Hello, Allan----I have a pair of February, 1926 copies of THE TAMPA (Fla.) GLOBE which have the strip HAPPY HUNCH OF WALL STREET by H.L.Kruckman. Typical intended-for-tabloids comic, maybe poorer than usual.-------Cole Johnson.

Hi Cole -
I checked and the Tampa Globe does not exist on microfilm. That's a real bummer but not unexpected. If it was part of the MacFadden chain, practically none of them are on film. Might you be able to scan your samples? There'd be a goodie box in it for you!
