Herriman One-Shots: February 9 1902
%2002-09-1902.jpg)
This half-pager was done for the McClure comic section of February 9 1902. As was their practice at the time, McClure often devoted pretty much their whole section to holiday themes, and this section was all about Valentine's Day.
Although I have no doubt that Herriman could produce some passable poetry, for him to do so is quite a rarity. In fact, I'm going to take a guess that in this piece George might well be illustrating the doggerel of some other McClure scribe. What do you think?
