George Herriman Original artwork for Krazy Kat, c. 1917-1918 |
This original artwork from the early days of George Herriman's Krazy Kat comic strip tells a story in five panels with a few sound effects but without any words. Of note, Ignatz tosses a boomerang rather than the classic brick at Krazy. The outcome is most likely predictable to the contemporary reader.

Did you hear about the government's partial shut-down? Of course you did. Well, if this were a blog about the hazards of putting political ideology over the good of the country, I would have quite a bit to say. But I'm going to stick with my one blog post about sequestration and let it ride-- probably for a while....
