In 1912, Zimmie was contracted for syndication by the Adams Syndicate. It was popular for newspapers to place a Zimmie cartoon by the weather report on the front page. Zimmie was produced in both single and multi-panel formats.  Zimmie was Arch BristowÕs first nationally recognized work and ran in newspapers for over ten years.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe success of this book and its lessons learned would help Arch when he began the self-published Hay Rake Magazine in 1921.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"BooksWholesale","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44379421704353,"sku":"9781387831548","price":32.93,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0462\/1120\/3233\/files\/ek5vmq-front-shortedge-384.jpg?v=1716870365","url":"https:\/\/bookswholesale.myshopify.com\/products\/zimmies-summer-book-1908","provider":"BooksWholesale","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
