    Description

    Thanks for checking this out!  Yard sale this Saturday 7-1.
    OK!   So here's another bound volume of newspapers from the attic featuring Shenanigan Kids by Knerr, and Bringing Up Father by McManus, among others.  Daily and Sunday comic strips included.  Shipped media mail to the US only, thanks.
    The Philadelphia North American is for May-June 1919.  The large volume is tan to brown at the edges and must be handled with care.  Not for the squeamish!  Some pages are loose, in fact, the last fives issues are completely loose from the binding.  The spine strip and back board are detached, but present.
    You get 31 pounds of historical newspapers, which is generally how these are marketed and collected.  The size is 16.5 X 23 X 4.5 inches.
    The last five papers are in disarray, quite likely not in complete or collectible condition, but I have verified the Sunday color comic section is complete with BUF, and Shenanigan Kids in full color, full page, with "Just Boy" and "Say, Pop" in two-color, full page on their reverses.
    All other Sunday sections are present
    , too.
    BUF started in this paper on June 15th, and there are at least two scarce full page B&W advance promos for that appearance replacing
    Mr. Dubb by Opper
    .
    Good candidate for comic stripping or separating individual newspapers for resale.
    Thanks for your interest, and the dailies are Polly And Her Pals by Sterrett, Miss Information by Cowan, That Son-In-Law by Wellington, Say Pop by Payne, and some occasional editorial and specialty illustrations including full-page full-color fashion, among others.  Sports sections, car ads, theatre and vaudeville, travel and tourism, Pancho Villa, Treaty Of Versailles, aviation, women suffrage, riots and anarchy, etc.  Great contents!
    Thanks and I found the June 29 Treaty Of Versailles front page see last pic.  David
    I've had good luck with media shipping, ten days or so.  Please send me any questions or comments.
    Description may be updated during the listing.  Check my other lots.
    I am racing the clock a little bit to list my remaining volumes, so I can't give an exhaustive description of the contents, but I'm happy to answer any more questions I can about this volume.
    It's a nice chance for you since I am selling off some of the comics I've
    held for 30 years or more!
    Please send me any questions!
    US only, please.
    Thank you for your consideration,
    David S. Albright
