    Very nice! It’s as if he put 9 “boy’s books” adventures into one strip.

    If this strip never appeared in full color, why is this one colored? Were the originals colored but printed in B&W, or is this a modern color-job?

    Are you sure that’s three colours? I see it only two — black and orange. That was a very common colouring style for a lot of illustrations in children’s books of the era.

    Notice the airplane. This is only 12 years after the Wright Bros first flight and 6 years after their first public demonstration. This was super fast development.
