cartoons since 1895. It is reported that 86 million adults and 17 million children in the U.S. read the Sunday comics each week! In fact, comic strips are considered one of America's only indigenous art forms. The comic strip and its characters have popularized words and phrases, such as "I Yam Wot I Yam," from Popeye, and even the foods we eat, like the "Dagwood" sandwich from Blondie. Comics have become movies ("Popeye"), and Broadway Shows ("Annie"). This sheet honors comic strips created within the first 50 years of comics, 1895 to 1945. Back of panel gives tidbits of what is on front!
