ANNIE'S LI'L ORPHANS by Bill Yates and Stan Drake


Ted Dawson, over at the Three Men in a Tub blog, shows us a rare promotional sales brochure for ANNIE'S LI'L ORPHANS, by Stan Drake and Bill Yates.

ANNIE'S LI'L ORPHANS combined Drake's Good Girl Art with Yates'-drawn little cartoon kids (as Ted points out, just like LIBERTY MEADOWS by Frank Cho did years later).

Judging by the look of the aged, yellowing Zip-a-tone, this looks like at least a 30-40 year old syndicated comic strip proposal.

  4. Great eye candy but two different voices. Frank Cho did it, but I don't know if he succeeded. Thanks for digging that up, Mike.
