SYNOPSIS
- A comprehensive, fully re-mastered collection of turn-of-the-century
rarities from cartooning and animation pioneer, Winsor McCay: “Tales
of the Jungle Imps,” “Little Sammy Sneeze,” “Dreams
of a Rarebit Fiend,” and “Pilgrim’s Progress.”
Best known for “Little Nemo in Slumberland,” and the seminal
animated feature “Gertie the Dinosaur,” McCay's artistic
talent and whimsical humor are on full display here.
Checker's goal is to gather in one series all of McCay's work other than Little Nemo, which has seen widespread reprint publication, most recently by Fantagraphics Books. Besides the first-time-ever complete reprintings of better know fixtures in the McCay canon like Hungry Henrietta, Little Sammy Sneeze and A Pilgrim's Progress, Checker is gathering short-lived rarities from his earliest days as a newspaper illustator at the Cincinnati Enquirer, and briefer Herald/Telegram/American experiments like Phoolish Phillip, Sister's Little Sister's Beau, Poor Jake, Mr. Goodenough and several others.
