Percy L. Crosby's famous fifth-grader SKIPPY was an American household name for over 20 years (1923-1945), appearing in newspapers, magazines, and spawning collections of strips and cartoons, novels, radio shows, movies, toys and game and more! It began as a feature in Life magazine before expanding to other publications and venues, and is credited with being one of the big influences on Charles Schultz. It was a far-reaching enterprise, featuring the ever-young and innocently mischievous SKIPPY and his friends. This small collection features early SKIPPY humor, showcasing Crosby's unique and masterful style.
