Nancy: Could I borrow a little string, please? Man: Right there.
She meant it when she said “borrow”.
Next time, you should ask what she wants it for!
She’ll bring it back after she’s done with it.
Is that really how they sold string back then? Weird.
In the early 50s, we lived in a incorporated neighborhood, and it had what my father called “the jerk-water store.” Much like this. Very small, the genesis of the 7-11
I’m guessing that is for the brown paper wrapping paper? Nice retro cartoon!
Come on guys! This is the comics! Stop the drama! OY! I grew up reading NANCY, Little LuLu, etc. Stop reading into what’s not there! Life’s too short!
Define ‘little’…
Offer her an inch and she demands a mile.
A bit of a pig is she.
Ernie’s ambiguous treatment of the fire hydrant in panel three intrigues me. Ernie appears to have added three whatcha-ma-callits to a kettle.
