Description

"Nancy" strip published on 10-24-51. This great strip shows Bushmiller's stylistic evolution towards iconic minimalism well underway, but not quite there yet. The panels, however, are quite a bit less cluttered than examples from the 40s, and the compositions are balanced to perfection. He still has a way to go, but all the awkwardness and fussiness of his youthful style is completely gone.

I've been enjoying your gallery and your insights, and the gag for this one got a chuckle out of me.

Thanks for the short commentaries on the Nancy strips you own. This one is classic Nancy.
