AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Rare surviving episodes from various Sunday Comics sections, featuring amazing episodes of Pogoand other series:
This bundle contains about 30 pages featuring Winnie Winkle from the 1930's. Each page has comics printed recto/verso. The verso side can feature various comics. Due to the high volume of pages in this lot, only some images were selected.
Winnie Winkle is an American comic strip published during a 76-year span (1920–1996). The stories and artwork were by Martin Branner, who wrote the strip for over 40 years. Winnie Winkle is one of the first comics about working women. Winnie's adopted younger brother, Perry Winkle (in fact an imitation of Buster Brown) quickly became the most popular character of the strip. The Chicago Tribune Syndicate launched the comic strip on September 20, 1920.
By 1939, Winnie Winkle was running in more than 140 newspapers and sold worldwide. Perry Winkle became very popular in translation as "Bicot" in France, from 1924 on, and as "Sjors van de Rebellenclub" in the Netherlands starting 1938. The translated version inspired Willy Vandersteen, Bob de Moor and Marc Sleen for a long running series of gags named "De Vrolijke Bengels / De Lustige Kapoentjes" published in Flemish newspapers, featuring the typical wooden clubhouse.
The pages are in good condition, although wrinkles, tears, flaking and missing pieces may occur.
Will be shipped with track&trace.
