Have you seen my posts about Lou Fine's long running advertising strips for Philip Morris? I just replaced a black and white one from May 1950 for a color one. The whole post can be found using the tag to october 2010.
Forgive the public note, but I don't know how to contact you otherwise. I don't know if you follow this blog...he just posted an interesting selection of comics- and cartoon-style ads from old American magazines.
hi Ger, Thank you so much for all the great stuff you post. I really like Fine's later work such as this example. Will ther be any more Adam Ames strips posted in the near future?
The Adam Ames I did were provided by a rehular on one of the groups I visit and although I would love to show some more, there are a few other strips waiting as well. Picking these runs is quite a timeconsuming job, especially when they come from a time hen the average storyline ran for three months.
I am slowly selling my comics, cartoon and newspaper collection on Ebay. In short, when I am done scanning them and they are on the blog, I no longer need to keep the original paper. If you want to go and have a look what I have on sale now, please go to http://www.ebay.com/sch/gerapeldoorn/m.html?item=152381924308&ssPageName=STRK%3AMESELX%3AIT&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2562. Prices are low and I combine for shipping.

I have been doing this blog for over ten years now. I find more and more that it is used by comic book, newspaper strip and cartoon historians as a tool for their research or additional illustrations. And I encourage that. I have larger uncleaned scans for all self scanned images on this blog for those want to use it for their book or article. Just ask and we'll get something going. Family members of artists mentioned here or anyone who is interested in donating scans is encouraged to make contact. By the way, the quickest way to reach me these days is through Facebook.
I highly recommend
Getting any of these wonderful books will help me fund this page.
I am a Dutch television writer, who has written about comics and television for a number of publications here in Holland and in the US. I love hearing from (forgotten) artists and/or their relatives, so if you are one of those and happen upon this blog, please leave a note.
