It looks like we're back! Some sort of firewall was interfering deeply with stuff coming and going. That and changes with Blogger have been a royal pain.
I apologize to all those whose comments have stayed hidden for several months. It seems that the flood gate has opened to reveal those comments at last!
I still have lots of Kelly stuff to share, so let's hope that at least THIS swamp doesn't get drained!

Dear Thom, I'm so happy to see that the blog is alive again! I was afraid you'd given up & was too busy with other projects. My Sundays were not what they used to be... Thanks ever so much!
ReplyDeleteThank you! I'm going to try to restore your Sunday best!

Me too! Thanks Hun for hanging in there!
DeleteWonderful. Just damn wonderfully great to have you — and your fantastic take on Pogo — back.
ReplyDeleteGod be blessed that it was only small usual digital bugs.
All the best for you, dear Thom.
Yves, damn good to be back, I've missed your comments!
DeleteBeautiful and hilarious at the same time. But that's Kelly! Is this an original tear sheet? Michael
ReplyDeleteIt IS beautiful, isn't it? It's a tear sheet, but I wouldn't call it original . . .
DeletePoor choice of words -- I meant vintage, as opposed to a recolored book reprint.
DeleteI should have said "vintage".
ReplyDeleteOr vintage...lol
DeleteJust asking if it's a 1952 tear sheet or a modern reprint.
ReplyDeleteHi Michael, I knew what you were asking.
DeleteI was winkingly trying to avoid the answer. It's a modern reprint, but I don't want to jeopardize the source. Any of the 1952 strips that have the label 'Tony Peters collection' are vintage tear sheets. Anything from 1963 on are vintage tear sheets from my collection.
