Al Capp - Li'l Abner Daily Comic Strip Original Art (undated).
<B>Al Capp - Li'l Abner Daily Comic Strip Original Art (undated).</B></I> This risque daily was censored for publication, except for the military papers in the U.S.A. and Europe, where it was eventually published. In order to get a date, Moonbeam McSwine makes the "soopreme sacrifice, namely taking a bath", and when her efforts go unnoticed, she relocates her tub out of doors, and draws enough attention from the troops of Camp Saltpeter -- and the enlisted readers -- to make this artwork justly famous. The image area measures 22" x 6", and the condition of the art is Excellent. Any "Li'l Abner" maven who digs the "dirty darling" should be willing to make a <I>soopreme</B></I> effort to capture this legendary and steamy daily. <BR><BR><B>Important notice:</B> Heritage usually auctions material at the rate of 200-250 lots per hour. On some occasions eBay Live bid software or the Internet may not be able to keep up with the pace of the auction. We recommend placing a realistic absentee bid now as insurance to avoid disappointment. Occasionally the auctioneer may eliminate or reject an eBay Live bid, and the auctioneer may also reopen a lot after the close of the eBay live bidding (usually because we missed an audience bid), and may reject your bid even if it shows you as the winning bidder. By bidding via eBay Live, you agree that Heritage may award the lot to another bidder at its sole discretion under the circumstances described above or any other reasonable circumstances. Since eBay bids are not shown to us until we open the lot on the floor, we treat those bids just like floor bids. In most cases the floor responds before the eBay bid is presented to us, due to Internet lag time, so for consistency we have made it a policy that floor bids are always considered first over tie eBay live bids. Also please note that all Heritage lots purchased through eBay Live carry a 20% Buyer's Premium. Please make sure you read the Terms and Conditions before you bid.
