Date Sold 9/10/2017 Sold For: Login or Register to see sold price. An Autographed Original Comic Strip Drawing (measures 11 1/4" x 30 1/4") (Learn More) Mutt and Jeff were a comic strip duo created by Bud Fisher in 1907 and 1908. Mutt and Jeff were a pair of loser best friends (one tall and one short) and were one of the most popular newspaper cartoon strips ever. The pair remained in newspaper syndication until 1982 and were drawn by several cartoonists including Al Smith (who drew them for 50 years). The duo have appeared in many forms of media including comic books and films. From 1911 to 1926, Bud Fisher created an astonishing 347 animated cartoons starring the duo. Note that Bud Fisher was one of the rare successful creators who was also an excellent business man, and he gained control of the newspaper strip, and when the first cartoons were adapted in 1911, he retained sole ownership of those as well, and his various enterprises made him an extremely wealthy man! Important Added Info: Note that this item has been personally autographed (signed) by the artist, Bud Fisher! It has a paste-over at the bottom of the third panel, which reads "Copyright 1930 by H.C. Fisher. Great Britain Rights Reserved. Trade Mark Reg. U.S. Pat. Office", indicating that this was used in England. We would think that this simply means that the strip was reused in England, and that when it was used there, they added this paste-over to the art from the U.S. strip. This is absolutely the original Bud Fisher artwork for this newspaper comic strip from 1930! Condition: very good. There are some pinholes, smudges, and small stains around the edges, but overall, the art is in pretty nice condition (see our image). Learn More about condition grades
