Sharp, Sharper, Sharpest

A single, standalone issue from 1885, Sharp, Sharper, Sharpest is a one-shot published by Frederick A. Stokes. This early comic is noted for its place in the pre-modern era of American humor strips, representing a brief, self-contained gag rather than an ongoing serial. Its significance lies in being a very early example of a comic release from a publisher better known for prose.
