Herriman Saturday

Tuesday, November 17 1908 -- The hot-air balloons "America" and "United States", piloted by Captain A.E. Mueller and Captain Horace B. Wild, respectively, have taken off from L.A. They hope to guide their crafts eastward and see how far they might get, but after two days of fighting unfavorable winds, both crafts gave up the journey without making it out of the general vicinity.

Time to spare? Go by air.
Even then, flights were delayed.

My name is Allan Holtz. I am a comic strip historian, and author of "American Newspaper Comics: An Encyclopedic Reference Guide." This blog is my outlet for all manner of interesting, oddball and rare material related to comic strip history. It is also a forum where others interested in comic strip history are encouraged to participate through the comments, or even by contributing articles. Have some information about a strip or cartoonist you'd like to share? I'd love to hear from you! You can post a comment on any post (click on 'Post a Comment' at the end of any post), or email me (see below).
