Among the fascinating images in the University of Oldenburg library's online exhibition "
Wonderfully Vulgar: British Comics 1873–1939" are
two pages from Arthur Conan Doyle's "The Adventure of the Greek Interpreter" in the
Strand (illus. Sidney Paget) and the 1897 spoof
The Funny Wonder featuring "Chubblock Homes" drawn by
Jack Butler Yeats (the artist brother of W. B. Yeats; see also Chubblock's appearance
in drag). There's also an
excerpt from a 1936 sea serial starring James Cagney.
