The first comic strip to use multiple sequential panels in a single feature format six days a week was
the short-lived A PIKER CLERK by Clare Briggs. The second was the wildly popular MUTT & JEFF. MUTT
& JEFF first saw print in the San Francisco Chronicle on November 15, 1907 and continued until June
26, 1983. During that time the strip was published by various newspaper syndicates starting with King
Features and ending with the Field Newspaper Syndicate.
MUTT & JEFF has been published by various comic book companies including Dell and Harvey, but
most famously by ALL-AMERICAN PUBLICATIONS, now know as D.C. Comics. MUTT & JEFFÕs historical
pedigree includes the strip being part of what is considered by most comic historians as the first
modern comic book, FAMOUS FUNNIES #1. In 1939 D.C. Comics published MUTT & JEFF #1. The series
had one hundred and three issues and lasted just shy of twenty years. For reasons known only to the
clerical gods, the D.C. MUTT & JEFF comics slipped quietly into the public domain.
This book is available in standard color, premium color and black & white as well as in both softcover
and hardcover editions.
