Description
I'd been looking for a great Broom-Hilda strip for my wife featuring several of the main characters and Broom Hilda smoking her cigar. This came up and I loved the silly humor and especially love the first panel.

Russell Myers Broom-Hilda Sunday Comic Strip Original Art dated 1-4-76 (Chicago Tribune, 1976). Gaylord Buzzard regales Broom-Hilda with a fascinating tale of "fat as hog" birds being shipped off to Sing Sing. Signed by writer/artist Russell Myers in the final panel. Ink over graphite on toned Bristol board with a massive image size of 20.5" x 14". Whiteout, a discolored text correction paste-up in panel five, and corner/edge wear with creasing.

One look and you can tell Myers made this one special amongst a lot of the strips.  The title logo itslef is telling us this one is going to be his top effort!

This brings back so many memories of reading the funnies on a Sunday morning! The title panel is an amazing start to a super fun strip.

Congratulations to you and Sheri on adding this true gem to your collection!  It's from my favorite period of Broom Hilda and has an incredible title panel along with a great gag told for the remainder of the strip.  This is just too sweet; I'm definitely on the prowl for a comparable Sunday!!
