Buster Brown was created in 1902 by Richard F. Outcault. The comic strip began in the New York Herald on May 4, 1902. Outcault left for William Randolph Hearst's employ in January 1906. After a court battle, Outcault continued his strip in Hearst papers, now nameless as can be seen in the images. The Herald continued their own version of Buster Brown with other artists. The latter lasted until January 1911, and Outcault's version until May 13, 1923.

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

Will be shipped with track&trace.
