It all started in 1907, when Harry Conway “Bud” Fisher created what is considered to have been the first daily comic strip with continuing characters. The result was the famous Mutt and Jeff comic strip, which was a popular newspaper feature for 75 years. Bud Fisher was the first newspaper cartoonist to become a true celebrity. And he was the first cartoonist to make a fortune in the field of comics at a time when most cartoonists made modest salaries. He began as a sports cartoonist for the San Francisco Chronicle around 1905. Fisher soon graduated to more sophisticated political cartoons, which displayed greater artistic skill.
A wonderful holiday gift for the collector.
