Note George McManus' signature initials on his cuff. Bringing Up Father had an 87-year run (January 12, 1913 - May 28, 2000). McManus and his assistant Zeke Zekley collaborated on the strip from 1935 to 1954, when McManus died. In 1941, McManus replaced his topper strip Rosie's Beau with Snookums. Robert Leckie (James Badge Dale) is shown reading Snookums in the final episode of HBO's The Pacific (2010).
