Original vintage “Short Subjects” comic strip production proof featuring artwork by Roger Armstrong. This large black-and-white proof sheet contains multiple gag panels with the title “Short Subjects” prominently displayed and is believed to have been prepared for newspaper syndication or printing.
The sheet bears an embossed Brown & Bigelow seal in the lower right corner, indicating production by the well-known printing company. It is an interesting piece of American newspaper and comic history, showing production artwork before publication.
Unlike a printed newspaper clipping, this is a large-format printer’s proof/production sheet with crisp black line art on heavyweight paper.
