Tuesday Comic Strip Day.
Patsy (in Hollywood)is one of those strips that had a lot of different artists and changed her style along with them every few years. The strip was created and owned by Associated Press and like other strips from that outfit, the artists were recruted from the bullpen. Some AP artists even worked on several of their strips, such as Secret Agent X-9. Patsy was handled at first by Mel Graff, but take over by Charles Raab when Graff left to do Secret Agent X-9. Raab was supposedly assisted by Noel Sickles on some weeks (some of which I showed in an earlier post). After Raab left he strip was taken over by lesser talent, until it returned to some sort of permanence again when it was given to Bill Dwyer after the war. Dwyer turned it into more of a funny strip, which seems to have had continuity on weedays and gags on Sundays. I showed two of the Sundays earlier, but saw I had three more. So here they are, together with a sampling of dailies from the later years.

Cool and corny stuff. I like Dyers style. So different from Graff and Raab but far better than Storm.
