    I would guess that’s the “steering wheel” rope (going back to the push-carts we made in the 50’s with rope to control the front wheels).

    “An educated citizenry is a vital requisite for our survival as a free people.” Not from Thomas Jefferson but could have been.

    TCM shows it occasionally. It’s worth the watch – a responsible (mature?) tear jerker.

    Actually, some of the comics (e.g., Luann) on this site have a “Characters” tab that shows a picture and bio for all the characters (cast members?). In doing that here, Robb would have to come up with an extra panel every few years, but by doing so he could keep it up to date and clear up minor confusions like “Who is the 12th Son?” (Marcus, now married to Nicole).

    The child actress, Lisa Loring, who played Wednesday Addams, died recently at 64. She was very good for being only 6 at the time.

    If a movie is all in B&W on a TV, that is because the TV itself is B&W. Actually, there is no B&W part in The Wizard of OZ because the non-technicolor parts were in displayed in monochrome sepia and white which is technically not B&W (maybe S&W?). This technique was used a lot during the silent movie era; they would show the screen in monochrome blue, green, yellow, red or orange shades by tinting the film stock. Once talkies came out, they did that although it was much less common. — The Movie Nerd

    And, of course, there were also a few movies that displayed sepia and mauve (S&M?), but for adults only.

    But in the second frame, Amelia held it up to show Wallace and reversed the direction, so the direction would be reversed in the third panel. — The Spoil Sport
