Hi George. Thanks for the offer. I found the whole thing on line (which is where the image of the original page came from). I'm impressed to know that you have the book and recognize it. Hah.

Been years since I have seen a Newell original - he did one of those weird upside down strips (as well as a version of Alice in Wonderland that was the one I read to my daughter years ago) We need to get together now I am here though finding stuff is still a challenge!
