I get the same feeling anytime I see one of the George Herriman editorial cartoons the Strippers Guide has been running on Saturdays...so odd to see his art style outside of "Krazy Kat."

I'm glad they were saved in some form. Kind of reminds me of an archaeological dig, except the maker of the images is still alive and well! I've always been intrigued by what Watterson's editorial cartoons looked like. He always wrote about how bad they were, but seeing them for myself makes me realize what high standards he was working under. None of this stuff would have made the "Bad Cartoonist", I imagine.
