Super interesting artical. Thanks for sharing!

It's prompted me to finally post a frame of this 'camera-ready' comic strip that I've been hanging on to for years now...

Goofy tries to woo Minnie away from a very well dressed Mickey by carving a tiki for her. Comedy ensues.

Knowing that I was big into collecting tiki, a former associate of mine gave me this original hand pen and inked comic strip from 1963. Hand 'signed' by Walt with blue penciled notes made in the margins. The 'dots' to create tonal shading are transparent overlay "Ben-Day" dots, cuts and glued to the paper.

The whole 4 frame strip measures about 7"x19". It was used inorder to be photographed and shrunk down for the newspapers' cartoon section. I doubt that the 'Walt' signature was actually him, though I do like to think so...
I'll post more of the frames eventually.
