Christmas is coming and provides us with the IDW volumone that might be the perfect gift: POLLY AND HER PALS 1913 - 1927
This is a huge hardback with laminated cover, 176 pages printed in color on very thick paper matte, 30x40 for $ 75.
With an introduction by Paul Craig Russell and a learned (and beautifully illustrated) introduction by Jeet Heer on Cliff Sterrett, the book (in color, large format) the first Sunday (December 28, 1913) and two pages chosen for each year from 1914 to 1923, followed by a Full chronological sequence, which runs from November 30, 1924 to April 12, 1925, Sterrett when he took a sabbatical.
After offering a selection of 6 boards released during this time by ghost artists that stand out immediately because it printed on colored paper (only the frame, because the plates are white and perfectly restored), sharing with those of Sterrett, 22 November 1925-25 December 1927.
The cover of the book is by Lorraine Turner and the tables are presented full complement of their respective strips.
A second volume will contain the tables from 1928 to 1930 (and is also preparing a volume of daily strips).
