I have just recently "discovered"  Feininger am blown away at his artwork.  I wonder why none of the originals were saved? Sad to think they were trashed.

After owning these strips for many years I thought it was time for a new curator, I am pretty sure I found them a nice home with you Tom!  It was fun putting these sequences together, although some took years to do so, especially when they had been sold to different collectors! Enjoy!

The size makes this all the more impressive!  Romance and fashion of the day that is well illustrated.


And with a lot of artwork, it is much more impressive in person.

Great presentation and nice strip.  Is it just the picture or does the secondary matt or bevel change color from purple to black?

Fighting the monster octopus is not my idea of a honeymoon. This guy could really draw.


By the time their Honeymoon adventure was over, they had fought a shark, a monsterous octopus, pirates, almost burned alive, and almost strangled to death...I'd be askin for a divorce! : )

This guy had skills! You forgot to add that he could draw and smoke at the same time. Multi tasking in the early twentieth century.


I think he could also hold a cup(black coffee) and saucer with his teeth!

Great job in getting those captions added, Thomas. The piece was illustrated with the knowledge that those captions would be there, so it really hurts the composition of the original art when they're missing. It looks fabulous now!


Thanks Ruben, I totally agree with you!
