Wish You Were Here, from Archie Gunn

 

Here's a postcard issued by the Illustrated Post Card and Novelty Company during the U.S. involvement of World War I, so presumably in 1917 or '18 though the card itself is undated. It bears a code number of  136B.

Archie Gunn was a somewhat renowned 'pretty girl' artist who produced many postcards and posters. He was a regular feature in the newspaper Sunday supplements of the 1890s and into the 20th century. 

Our hard and fast rule here at Stripper's Guide is that only newspaper cartoonists rate being featured on Wish You Were Here, and Gunn admittedly has no known strip series in his credits. I believe he did, however, produce the first installment of Rice and Tapioca the Famous Pudding Brothers, albeit anonymously. So we won't make a habit of running Gunn's cards, but we'll offer him this one appearance as his due.
