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.
I like the harmony of opposites and surprise ending of this.
ReplyDeleteWow. Wow! WoW!! WOW!!! WOWWWWW!!!!
ReplyDeleteI was gonna say "Wow," but Mark kinda stole my thunder . . .
ReplyDeleteGreat eye candy but two different voices. Frank Cho did it, but I don't know if he succeeded. Thanks for digging that up, Mike.
ReplyDeleteMan...can that guy draw women !!!!
