Comments:
i started "in their own words" sometime in the '80s. Gave it to don o'briant. don't know if he still does it. it ran in as many as 20 newspapers at one time.
 
paul howle's email address is plhowle919@aol.com
 
I found "In Their Own Words" running in Tacoma, WA News-Tribune. It's a text-heavy activity panel.

Some samples: https://imgur.com/a/z3f29xq
 
"Inky" is actually titled "Little Inky", and I found it running in several papers, including The Tecumseh Chieftain in Nebraska, The Miner in Carbondale, PA, The Belleville Times in New Jersey, and Playground Daily News (yes, an actual newspaper) in Ft. Walton Beach, FL.

The cartoon is meant to promote the classified section, with the captions customizable so that it mentions the name of the paper it runs in.

I found it running into 1975.

Samples: https://imgur.com/a/G1Xqu4R
 
Follow up to above. Even though these cartoons have a byline to Hal Borden, the signature is for Irv Hagglund. Was Hal Borden a known pseudonym for Hagglund?
 
Thanks Charles, Little Inky is not a mystrey strip (#3676), so we're good to that extent. But are you really finding it in 1975? Granted these weekly classified ad things could be used whenever, but a decade late is pretty impressive! --Allan
 
I give you an "I" :
IT HAPPENED IN MONTANA by Jim Masterson, ident line COPYRIGHT 1940 BY J.W. MASTERSON. a numbered set of Scott's Scrapbook-type factoids about the big sky state. Made to appear in Montana small town weeklies.

Earliest (#1), The River Press (Fort Benton) 5 June 1940.
Latest (#85) Townsend Star (Townsend) 12 March 1942.
 
Thanks Mark, I've had the reprint book for years but never found the source material to It Happened In Montana. -- Allan
 
I found "It Just So Happened" by Kern Pederson running in Sequoyah County Times 1979-1981

https://imgur.com/a/hCd4b1B
 
Thanks Charles, it looks like we have a start date around January 1979, an end date around June 1982 based on the Sequoyah County Times and West Carroll Gazette.

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.

I
 
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.

--Allan
 
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!

--Allan
 
I have an original/signed Hank Barrow cartoon and would like to see it go to someone who would appreciate it. I took a couple of pictures, if you want to see them let me know how to send them to you. Do you know of anyone or company that specializes in this kind of art? Thanks in advance for your time. Bob
 
Wow, I can't believe I found this. I am the creator of Hampy. I can't tell you if Hampy was ever in a daily, as I didn't have very good communication with my syndicate. After a few years of hibernation, Hampy is back in action. His site is www.hampy.ca/hampy.html and he's all over :) Facebook, blogspot, twitter (HampyCanada), etc. Thanks for this post, and very interesting site, BTW.
 
Hi Laurie --
Thanks for writing! Can you tell me anything about this United Cartoonist Syndicate? They advertised a bunch of features that I've never seen and I'd love to know what it was all about. Was it a group of cartoonists trying to syndicate together, or one of those "pay us some money and we'll sell your comic for you" outfits. or something else entirely?

--Allan
 
Allan, I have the book the "comic guidelines" by Pedro Moreno. This was the name of the person I dealt with at United Cartoonists Syndicate, located then at P.O. Box 7081, Corpus Christi, Texas 78415. In this file I also have all the correspondence, the agreement, the progressive report (looks questionable, but who knows?). Three of the artists he said Mayer Media was interested in were "Bumpalumkins by Alberts, Oscy by Leiper and Capt. Skid by Benavidez.". If you are interested in any more information, let me know.
 
House of Hazards in Carolina Watchman, Salisbury North Carolina, in 1937.
 
The strip itself was not found (yet), but there was a large article on Henry Gaines Goodman in the Greenville (South Carolina) News on Jun 24, 1979, stating the Honeydew strip ran for four years as a daily mostly for East Coast and weekly newspapers, with a few examples reprinted. So while it does not prove it completely, it does narrow down the search (I clipped the article for all to read):

I am getting multiple hits for several newspapers for Hook-Up Henry in 1925:

Newspapers.com has examples from September 20, 1924, to November 2, 1925. Does seems to have been made into radio by the end of 1926!
 
Multiple Wheeler-Nicholson Syndicate comics strip on full-page display here Longview News-Journal (Longview, Texas), Tuesday, August 3, 1926, page 4.

https://www.newspapers.com/clip/34887010/longview-news-journal/

I suspect this was part of a promo package sent by The Major that this newspaper reprint in full looks like. Do not know if the paper continued publishing any of these...but they were published at least once!

This comment has been removed by the author.
 
One of the strips shows up on the 4th, the full page again shows up on the 5th, 10th, 11th, less than a full page on the 12th and 13th and I suspect longer after that for Longview News-Journal (Longview, Texas).
 
I found "Homer's Groaners" running in at least two newspapers: Philadelphia Daily News and The Montana Standard. Seems to be an activity strip? Does that count for your listing?

Here are samples: https://imgur.com/a/5PXnvV5
 
Brubaker, I'm going to have to say Homer's Groaner's doesn't qualify because you have to do something to get the joke -- kinda like the Jumble. But getting anything off the mystery list, qualified or not, is always a happy event! Thanks.
 
Got it. While we're at it, I found "How To Be A Supermother" running in Box Elder Journal in Brigham City, Utah.

Tearsheets with the cartoon - https://imgur.com/a/yrDMC9o
 
Sorry for the doublepost! In addition to the Supermother above, I found "Honeydew" running in Greenville News in South Carolina. They began running it on May 3, 1971. Here's the first week, plus an article about the creator that ran in the paper the day before:

https://imgur.com/a/2It1kh1
 
Got it, thanks Brubaker!
 
Re Honeydew, the last new material they run is from February 1973, and there's an article in January 1974 saying the panel was retuired due to cancellations. Guess he tried to sell it in reprints for quite awhile. Nice art, too bad it didn't make it.

--Allan
 
I found "Head of the Family" running in Dayton Daily News (OH) and The State (Columbia, SC) in 1971-72. https://imgur.com/a/e3vu38G
 
Thank you Charles; and they managed to go through two artists in that short run -- Bill Block and someone who signed themself only 'Scott'.

Obscurity of the Day: An Embarrassing Moment



There was a well-known Hearst series titled Embarrassing Moments that ran in the 20s and 30s. Among the luminaries that worked on that series were Billy DeBeck and George Herriman. What few people know is that it was actually a revival of an earlier Hearst series, An Embarrassing Moment. The original series started 3/2/1916 in the New York American, and was a tag team affair by A.C. Fera (better known for Just Boy, aka Elmer) and Fred Locher (Cicero Sapp). The joint effort only lasted a week, and then the series disappeared for five months (though it may have been running in papers outside New York). Locher resumed the series as a solo effort on 8/25/1916, but it was passed off just two months later to Jimmy Swinnerton (who supplies all our samples). Swinnerton produced the strip until July 1917 for the American, though it ran there only sporadically. It seems to have been produced and run in other papers on a more frequent basis.

The second and more famous series started sometime in 1922.

Obscurity of the Day: Kate And Karl


Mary Hays was definitely a relative of the better known distaff cartoonists Margaret Hays and Grace Drayton, possibly a sister though no one is quite certain. Mary seems to have been younger than the other two, and certainly was not nearly as gifted artistically. Her only long-running strip was Kate And Karl, done for the Philadelphia North American. All of the cartooning Hays clan worked at the North American in the first two decades of the 20th century, the others most notably with the long running popular series The Turr'ble Tales of Kaptin Kiddo. Mary definitely was trying to echo the style of Grace Drayton, but her version comes off as flat and lifeless by comparison. Her storytelling ability, too, leaves something to be desired as our sample attests (I had to read it three times before I could even decipher the continuity and the gag).

Kate And Karl ran 9/24/1911 through 11/30/1913, and was later reprinted in the World Color Printing Sunday sections of 1917-18. It's my understanding that Mary Hays went on to be a well-regarded paper doll designer.

Comments:
Mary A. Hays (later Mary Hays Huber) was a daughter of Margaret Gebbie Hays, and a niece of Grace Gebbie Wiederseim Drayton (Margaret and Grace being sisters). In her early career Mary hadn't come into her own artistically, but she was very young!
She later designed/illustrated a good many items for the Dennison and Gibson companies; the companies neither credited their artists nor kept a record of their names. I have seen her name on a couple of children's magazine pages, one of which I own, and I have seen just her initials (MH) on one Gibson postcard which is recognizably in her style (and which I also own).

I realize that postcards, bridge tallies, and holiday stickers aren't your primary interest, but I thought you might enjoy having some of the information I've been able to glean over the past few years.

Hi Elizabeth --
I'm always thrilled when readers write with additional info about these cartoonists. So many of them are ciphers to me, it's great to hear about their other endeavors!

Obscurity of the Day: Chris and Christena's Courtship

In mid-1912 the Rocky Mountain News ran Chris and Christena's Courtship as sort of a banner on the front page of their Sunday classified section. I have a run of the strip from July through August, but it may well have run longer.

Notice that this strip is in (limited) color, even though it ran in what is normally a black-and-white section of most papers. The papers of Denver (the Post, the Times, the Republican, the Express, the Rocky Mountain News and perhaps even others) were in a pitched battle for circulation, though, so many of the papers brightened their paper with a liberal use of color. The color extended to the news coverage as well -- the Denver papers of the 1900s-1910s are some of the yellowest journals you'll ever find. If you're a fan of sensational newspapers like I am, you'll find nirvana in the pages of these old Colorado papers.

I don't know whether this strip originated at the News or if it was syndicated from elsewhere. The cartoonist Artigue has a few comic strip credits in Boston and Philadelphia in the 1906-09 period, but I lose track of him after that with this one exception from 1912. Can anyone offer more information on either Artigue or this strip?

Can You Find the Lost Kirby Strips?

As promised a few moons ago on this blog, I have been looking for the list of newspapers given to me by Greg Theakston. These newspapers are supposed to have run Jack Kirby's ultra-rare material for the Lincoln Features Syndicate. Though we've found a few papers now running Lincoln material, most of the more interesting Kirby work (like Socko The Sea Dog, Cyclone Burke and The Black Buccaneer) are still only know from proofs in the collection of Roz Kirby.

Greg Theakston got a short list of papers from Roz that are presumed to have run some of the more obscure Lincoln Features material, and he passed it along to me. I have been unable to obtain any of these newspapers on microfilm. If any of you have access to these papers I beg, chide and admonish you to index the Lincoln material (which starts around 1935):

Nassau Bulletin
Hillsdale Herald
Tripoli (IA) Leader
Cuyahoga Falls (OH) News
Darby (PA) Progress
Clifton (NJ) Leader
Newark (NJ) Issue
Putnam County (NY) News
Irvington (NJ) Herald
Clifton (NJ) Weekly
unnamed paper in Beverly Hills CA
unnamed paper in South Bend and Fort Wayne IN

Comments:
Did you ever find a paper running Socko the Seadog?
The Old Fulton site has some samples from the Attica News and the Cayuga Chief.
Go to http://fultonhistory.com/Fulton.html and do an exact search for Socko the Seadog.
D.D.Degg
 
Lincoln Features that appeared in 1937 are:
Cyclone Burke
Black Bucaneer
Socko the Seadog
Lefty Wright
Dolly in Hollywood
The Cloud Busters (protaginist is "Lance Kirby"
