Two Oversized Bungle Family Comic Strips, 1924 & 1930

Two oversized comic strips of the American comic strip, The Bungle Family, both measuring approximately 23" x 29". On verso, both have notations in pencil that the posters were sent from Tuthill's Ferguson, Missouri address to the McClure Syndicate in New York City. Originally created by Harry J. Tuthill in 1918, this American comedy comic, originally titled Home, Sweet Home, focused on the Bungles and their comedic daily trials and tribulations. Both with worn, chipped, and soiled edges and corners. Bright colors. The second comic has tape along a horizontal fold on verso.

Includes:
1. June 8, 1924, entitled "George Dislikes the Host's Assistant". George and Josie take a disastrous drive with some friends.
2. October 19, 1930, entitled "Anyhow Josephine Tried". Josie gives George a terrible haircut and the neighbors take issue with their late-night arguing.

The Bungle Family first appeared in the New York Evening Mail in 1918 and ran until June 2, 1945. The strip became a popular domestic comedy and was praised for its realistic dialogue and circumstances. The patriarch of the family, the long-suffering George Bungle, frequently embodied the frustrations and successes of the common man during the Jazz Age and through the Depression.
