Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine +. b/w Cartoons (illustrator). Reprint. Li'l Abner is a satirical American comic strip that appeared in many newspapers in the United States, Canada and Europe, featuring a fictional clan of hillbillies in the impoverished mountain village of Dogpatch, USA. Written and drawn by Al Capp (1909?1979), the strip ran for 43 years, from August 13, 1934 through November 13, 1977. It was distributed by United Feature Syndicate. Comic strips typically dealt with northern urban experiences before Capp introduced Li'l Abner, the first strip based in the South. The comic strip had 60 million readers in over 900 American newspapers and 100 foreign papers in 28 countries. Author M. Thomas Inge says Capp "had a profound influence on the way the world viewed the American South "As World War II came to America, Al Capp moved his comic strip firmly into the realm of social satire. Meet the genial hustler. Available Jones, and Joe Btfsplk, world's worst jinx. Abner goes on a quest and Salomey is kidnapped by the Scraggs. While all this, and more, was going on, Capp found time to contribute artwork and time to the Defense and Treasury Departments, the Red Cross, and military hospitals. Seller Inventory # 054567
