Background: this Facebook posting on the 18th by Chris Hansen:
My online friend Arnold Zwicky is a kind of chronicler of comic strips, from a historical and a linguistic perspective.

Aside from the very exacting drawings, the hand lettering is a beautiful example of what lettering can be. Here’s the link to the website; there’s a lot of trolley stuff in front of the comics and some afterward, but these cartoons are an intriguing collection of history and comedy from the 1920’s.
