Description from the seller

Rare surviving episodes from American newspapers, featuring daily episodes of Alley Oop from 1939.

Last episode of 1938 + 311 episodes of 1939. One of the 311 episodes is a very good copy (episode of december, 9).

On the back there's sometimes Freckles and his friends, Red Ryder,...

Only some images were selected.

Alley Oop is a syndicated comic strip created December 5, 1932, by American cartoonist V. T. Hamlin, who wrote and drew the strip through four decades for Newspaper Enterprise Association. Hamlin introduced a cast of colorful characters and his storylines entertained with a combination of adventure, fantasy, and humor. Alley Oop, the strip's title character, is a sturdy citizen in the prehistoric kingdom of Moo. He rides his pet dinosaur Dinny, carries a stone axe, and wears only a fur loincloth. Alley Oop's name was derived from the French phrase allez, hop! ("here we go")

The pages are in very good condition, although wrinkles, tears, flaking and missing pieces may occur.

Will be shipped with track&trace.

The lots in this auction can be shipped combined. This is taken into account up to a weight of 5 kg. If packages need to be split due to weight, an additional charge will apply. In this case, we will contact you.
