Description
'Brown Boys' daily strip, nearly complete set. 'Brown Boys was an unpublished strip from 1930's. There were 121 strips. I have strips 6-121, and there is a proof sheet reproducing 1-5. This collecton came in a fancy box (with a metal plaque) which i show on the scan.
This is a rarity and historical item. This was artist John Jay Humski's attempt at a cartoon strip. it was picked up by American Features Syndicate, but didnt appear in any newspapers. All the strips are in excellent condition and present a complete story adventure.

I really liked Humski- he lived in WIsconsin - did inking ghosting on some comic strips in the 1940's - Kid book illos, greeting cards , advertising promo comics etc.- this is a really nice example of his work
