Plish and Plum

Plish and Plum, a single-issue comic published by Little, Brown in 1899, stands as a quiet landmark in early American sequential art. It is most closely associated with its creator, whose work captures a gentle, whimsical tone that predates the explosion of the newspaper comic strip. While short-lived, this series offers a glimpse into the nascent possibilities of the comic form, making it a curio for historians of the medium.
