Tuesday Things Day.
Some years ago I collected a whole lot of Sunday strips from the Midland Reporter Telegram. The MRT was a NEA paper, which means that they had all of the lesser known and lesser distributed strips from that syndicate, some of my favorites (and very hard to find). Unfortunately the mico-fiche scans were very bad, ranging from way too dark to far too light. Cleaning out my files, I decided to share them anyway for the unseen gems that may be among them.
Things To Come is one of my favorite Sunday features from this lot. Drawn by AP regular Hank Barrow (whoe othe AP work and political cartoons I have share many times). I actually have a few color samples I was able to seell. But most of what I have is not transformed to micro-fiche very well. It was a very colorful strip, with lots of red, which did not tranlaate very well. Still, the subject is great, the style funny. I'd love to get my ahnds on some realy appers that ran it (as half a tabloid page).
