That's My Pop by Milt Gross
(1440-) First appearance 1929 - That's My Pop was just one of the many
grand strips created by master funny cartoonist Milt Gross. This offering
features a rotund pop who is in a never-ending search for the next scam, always trailed
behind and observed by his son who always splurted 'That's my Pop!' in the final panel.
The strip fit the great depression to a great extent. Pop's scams were
usually around finding a job, something that many folks of the era could sympathize with.
Other scams would see Pop getting meals or finding his way into shows and baseball
games. Of course Pop's success rate was usually as good as the reason for the
scam. If it was for his own benefit, pop's scams usually ended in failure and
sometimes a chase by the local policeman. If it was for the benefit of his
son, then somehow the scam would actually work. Regardless of how it turned out, the
strip usually carried plenty of action and physical humor, a trademark of all of Milt
Gross' strips. The market for That's My Pop is very good as is all Milt Gross
Offerings. Printed as Tabs or smaller, these are very hard to keep in stock. (69) |
