Frank Wing's crude, powerful and offtime cruel slice-o'-life comic Yesterdays originated in the Minneapolis Journal about 1910. The following selections are from the Saskatoon Star-Phoenix 1929-1930. Charles 'Sparky Schulz' studied cartooning with Wing. Blog Flume has a post with illustrations from a Yesterday's book collection HERE.

Not a correction, but I am curious. I just purchased a copy of "The Fotygraft Album: Shown to the New Neighbors by Rebecca Sparks Peters..." that states a first edition date of May 7, 1915, and second edition Aug. 23 of the same year.

I have come across an original signed drawing of "Bart" circa 1942 by cartoonist Frank Wing.
