Summary
In a mind-blowing, laugh-filled, freewheeling tour of New York, Gross' character Pop and his sidekick son blast through the East Side, The West Side, China Town and Harlem. The demented-duo roar through Yankee Stadium, The New York Public Library, and Coney Island! A lost graphic novel from one of the first and most brilliant graphic novelists: Milt Gross! Listen to what Big Shot cartoonists say about Gross: I love all his work-what a goofball! (R.Crumb); Still Great! (Jules Feiffer); He frees you up! (Patrick McDonnell); Dig! (Matt Groening). Animation Resources says of this uber-rare book from 1939: It's an amazing time capsule into life in the Big Apple in its golden age. If Weegee's Naked City depicts the front page view of this marvelous time and place, Gross' Cartoon Tour tells the Funny Pages version. Animation Resources concludes: Milt Gross is one of the greatest comic artists who ever lived. His drawing style is direct and funny with absolutely flawless staging, composition and expression ...there's still plenty of joy in every panel!
