The oldest piece of art I own, except for my Yambo's illustrations

That's a nice example of this classic strip, both in terms of art and script, with a very fun gag... Which actually seems quite suitable for the current President of the United States ;)

As a final note, even masters make mistakes! In fact, in 3rd panel, McManus has drawn two times the hat of Jiggs' mate, Tim: one is flying up over his head and the other one is falling down behind his left shoulder. Also, Jiggs' walking stick mysteriously disappears...

Sono splendide le McManus, purtroppo ancora in mancolista, spero non per molto!

I like eclectic collections, i believe that Italians are quite the best at this, and your gallery is one of my favorite platinum/Golden/silver/bronze/copper place to waste a little of my time :-)
