Did you know that the strips on pages 31-33 are reprints of Uncle Otto strips (probably) by Will Eisner from very early issues of, if memory serves, Fiction House's Jumbo Comics? So perhaps this book was packaged by S.M. Iger, who DID have an international connection with his overseas syndication of strips like Hawks of the Sea and Flamingo. |
