Tall Tales Al Jaffee
Tall Tales was an innovative newspaper strip syndicated internationally in the New York Herald Tribune from 1957-1963. Whereas newspaper strips are usually square single panel or multiple panel horizontal gag cartoons, Al Jaffee, known for the fold-in in MAD magazine, once again altered the format of his work to create a vertical strip--the first and the last in newspaper history. This collection contains the best wordless strips from over 2 200 originals.
