Title: Winsor McCay -- A Tale of the Jungle Imps by Felix Fiddle

URL: http://cartoons.osu.edu/digital_albums/winsormccay/

Description: This website contains the digital album for Winsor McCay -- A Tale of the Jungle Imps by Felix Fiddle. Until January 2006 none of the original drawings created by McCay had been seen for more than a century. The Ohio State University Cartoon Research Library acquired five of the original hand-colored drawings which comprise this digital album. Unlike other extant examples of McCay's original comic strips, A Tale of the Jungle Imps by Felix Fiddle are hand-colored. Although the reason McCay painted them is unknown, it may be that since this was his first effort at a comic strip, he was unsure how engravers might follow his color instructions and wanted to be sure that his preferences were clear.
