Up for bid on eBay is this Marjorie Henderon Buell original comic artwork
from 1939.
The seller explains, "Emma Pratt Hall who lived in Mansfield, Mass., wrote many fan letters requesting doodles from her favorite comic artists of the era, nearly one hundred artists honored her requests [including Buell]."
The seller adds, "These are all from the years of 1939 - 1940 and many have letters that accompany the drawings. It really is amazing the response she received this collection is outstanding. I would guess she was a persuasive letter writer and by the personalized content of many of the letters she was likely a young girl. Her comic art collection gained her some recognition as she received a press newspaper mention from a Sheffield England newspaper that is not included in this auction - but we included a scan of it the bottom of the listing as reference and provenance. Item: An inscribed C. 1939 - 1940 and signed "Marge" by the comic artist Marjorie Henderson Buell the creator of the Little Lulu comic strip original pen & ink and watercolor Illustration art comic work of her beloved signature comic character Little Lulu."
