Chasing the Blues

Chasing the Blues, a single-issue comic from 1912 published by Doubleday, is a whimsical, early example of the medium from the singular mind of Rube Goldberg. Known for his intricate, humorous machines, Goldberg both wrote and illustrated this short-lived series, offering a charming glimpse into the comedic sensibilities and visual storytelling of the early twentieth century. It stands as a quirky artifact from a pioneering era of American comics.
