<B>Milton Caniff - Terry and the Pirates Daily Comic Strip Original Art, dated 3-19-40 (The Chicago Tribune, 1940).</B></I> American heiress Raven Sherman cracked the whip in this daily titled "After Dinner Stint" -- she shanghaied Captain Blaze and Pat Ryan into actually doing the dishes to pay for their meal! Captain Blaze, Pat Ryan, Raven Sherman, and April Kane all appear. The daily has an image size of 20" x 6", and is in Excellent condition. Comics historian Maurice Horn once noted about Milton Caniff's artistic evolution, "Where Noel Sickles used his black and white contrasts to endow a scene with atmosphere, Caniff used them to suffuse the action with a subtle, all-persuasive mood. There is between Sickles and Caniff the same difference as exists between assonance and harmony, shape and form."<BR><BR><b>Shipping:</b> Large Flat (<a target="_blank" href="http://www.heritageauctions.com/common/shipping.php">view shipping information</a>)
