<B>Hal Forrest - Tailspin Tommy Sunday Comic Strip Original Art, dated 5-9-37 (Bell Syndicate, 1937).</B></I> Written and illustrated by the talented Hal Forrest, <I>Tailspin Tommy</B></I> was a rip-roaring aviation-adventure strip that spun off reprint books, a radio series, a dozen Big Little Books, and even a movie serial. In the wake of Charles Lindbergh's landmark crossing of the Atlantic, tales of aviation and aviators gripped the public imagination like never before. The first aviation strip, and according to many the best, was <I>Tailspin Tommy</B></I>. This detailed Sunday from 1937 has an overall size of 23" x 30". The title stat exhibits some slight discoloration, and the title logo from the bottom strip is missing; otherwise, this high-flying spectacular is in Very Good condition.<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
