My parents were my biggest cheerleaders. They are gone, but they still guide and inspire us.

He's lucky it was just plaster and not a flowerpot or bank safe.

Some of these "amusements" were also designed so a fella might see a lady's undies. 😳

The poor girl survived countless falling flower pots, only to endure this.

A truly good good person who kept his beautiful childlike curious perspective right to the end. Dylan was so right when he said of Brian, “That ear - I mean, Jesus, he’s got to will that to the Smithsonian.”

Sad to hear about Sly and Brian passing, but boy, what a legacy and treasure trove of music and inspiration they left us!

Those deaths peaked in the 1930s, as did Laurel and Hardy.

I was thinking the same thing! Sendak's book was published two years before this Nancy strip, so Bushmiller likely based his monster on Sendak's - they're identical. Aunt Fritzi likely read it to her before bed!

In the 1940s and 1950s, falling flower pots were the leading cause of injuries for American children in urban areas, while falling safes ranked fourth.

Things that have disappeared: boys wearing bowties, girls with hankies, paper hankies, and rubber stamps. 😕

Fun Fact: Ernie often drew three rocks in Nancy, and that's why Bill Griffith called his Bushmiller biography THREE ROCKS. Always look for Ernie's three rocks!

Fun Fact: Larry Whittington created the comic strip "Fritzi Ritz," which Bushmiller took over a few years later, and Ernie then added the characters Nancy and Sluggo - that's why it looks like Fritzi and Nancy are drawn in two different styles.
