Wish You Were Here, from Little Nemo
Here's our next Little Nemo card. If the anonymous artist who created this is playing true to the strip, this must be a scene from 1906 I think -- Dr. Pill's very patriotic colour scheme later was changed to a palette of muted blues.
Can you find the source panel? Or is our anonymous artist coming up with his own scene?

I think the artist tricked you by using Dr. Pill's 1906 colouring to make the card pop more. It is from Sept 1, 1907.

Good catch Brian, it's interesting that the artist is rather pointlessly slavish to the original panels in some ways, and yet in others he takes license -- like the arrangement of some of these characters.
