Death of Newspapers #16: More Barney Google Sunday pages from 1926
.
Craig Yoe's 224-page Barney Google collection is scheduled for publication next month by IDW Publishing. In addition to the strips, it features a visual intro by Richard Thompson and "rare unpublished art, photos and ephemera in glorious color." Click here to see IDW's previous Yoe Books.
Michael Dooley's interview with Craig Yoe.
Thanks to the great scans of Roger Langridge, here's our latest Barney batch, picking up where we left off in February with the October 24, 1926 page. This group takes us to the end of 1926 and raises the question: Did Amos 'n' Andy get the phrase "Holy Mackerel!" from Billy DeBeck? Amos 'n' Andy didn't begin on radio until March 19, 1928, but Freeman Gosden and Charles Correll did broadcast their earlier Sam 'n' Henry beginning January 12, 1926. Abba dabba wu!
