Wish You Were Here, from Margaret G. Hays

Margaret G. Hays was known both as a cartoonist and writer of comic strips, but here she shows us a side of her talents not cartoony at all. This birth congratulations postcard was issued in 1910 under the copyright of H.H. Rose. The reverse offers a logo with the initials TRC, presumably the printer (edit: The Rose Company).

Those initials actually stand for "T.R. Co.", standing for the Rose Co. of Philadelphia.

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).
