Allan Holtz at the excellent old comics blog The Stripper’s Guide posted an example the other day of The Wish Twins and Aladdin’s Lamp<\/em> by W.O. Wilson<\/a>, which inspired me to get this posted. Here’s an example I scanned from August 5th, 1906 of The Wish Twins and Aladdin’s Lamp<\/em> by W.O. Wilson, along with Little Sammy Sneeze<\/em> by Winsor McCay, and Feminine Fancies<\/em> by unknown. If anyone out there knows the cartoonist who did Feminine Fancies<\/em> (which I believe is the same series as Fancies of the Fair<\/a>), please let me know… their signature is in the middle panel.<\/p>\n

It appears someone recently published a small book collection of Madge the Magician’s Daughter.<\/a><\/p>\n

There are too many McCay books for me to reference here… we live in wondrous times. Here is a link to the amazing McCay books from Sunday Press printed and restored at full size<\/a>… big enough to be used as a blunt object. They recently did a Little Sammy Sneeze<\/em> book that oh boy I gotta have someday, which also includes a lot of examples of two other marvelous strips that were printed on the backs of the Sammy Sneeze strips… The Upside-Downs<\/em> by Gustave Verbeek and J.P. Benson’s Woozlebeasts<\/em>.<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
