KRAZY AND IGNATZ 1939-1940 SC

George Herriman integrated full spectacular colour into Krazy Kat in June, 1935. The colour format opens the floodgates for a massive amount of spectacular rare colour art from series editor Bill Blackbeard and designer Chris Ware's files, including an unpublished Herriman painting from the 1920s and other surprises. Krazy Kat 1939-1940 is a love story, focusing on the relationships of Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse and Offisa Pup. Most of the strips in this volume have not seen print since running in Hearst newspapers over 70 years ago.
