"COLLIER'S COPS" JAY IRVING (1900-1970) American cartoonist best known for his weekly comic strip Collier's Cops, a 13-year association with Collier's Weekly begun in 1932; among his other comic strips were Bozo Blimp, Willie Doodle, and his highly popular Pottsy strip which was syndicated by The Tribune-News Syndicate from 1946 until 1970. Rare, one of a kind original signed drawing "Jay Irving 3/24/34", being a specially created India-ink and wash drawing on a large sheet of light board, 8 11/16" x 8 5/8". A full-length depiction of an escaping convict in prison attire, holding ball and chain, caught in a sudden rain shower. Bubble above his head states: "Tsk Tsk! I'd better go back an' get my rubbers!". Dated as drawn in 1934, the character is undoubtedly from his popular strip Collier Cops. From the collection of author and King Features CEO Dick Hyman, who was an avid collector of comic art. Light staining, otherwise in very good condition. $300 - 400
