Sunday Funnies

I think I posted some examples of Gene Ahearn's great panel strip Our Boarding House sometime back. But here are a few samples of the Sunday version, where he could really stretch out main character Major Hoople's idiosyncrasies. Hoople was kind of the prototype for characters like Ralph Kramden and Fred Flintstone of a slightly later generation-- and just as, if not more, funny to me.

I'm searching for Gene Ahern's "Squirrel Cage" - and also for other strips, info about him, etc. Any help is appreciated! Thanks - Carl / kavkasia@gmail.com
