Title: [Buster Brown]. You can't blame Nora for fainting, can you? / R.F. Outcault.
Creator(s): Outcault, Richard Felton, 1863-1928, artist
Date Created/Published: [between 1902 and 1920] Aug. 30.
Summary: Twelve-panel comic strip shows a picture being delivered for the maid, Nora Green, showing her uncle who holds a cigar in his mouth. Buster Brown locates a real cigar and to the horror of his dog, Tige, cuts holes in the portrait where the arms are. He inserts his own arms through the holes, and later when Nora shows off the picture to a friend, he lights the real cigar. Nora faints and a general uproar ensues. All Buster Brown strips concluded with moral. In this case, Buster exhorts people to rely on their own achievements rather than those of their ancestors. Outcault originated the Buster Brown strip in the New York Herald in 1902, but in 1905, he was lured away by William Randolph Hearst and moved the strip to the New York American.
