It’s now live on Kickstarter! If you’d like to a rich history of 130 years of newspaper cartooning told with original art, printing artifacts, and much more, help me make it a reality and get youself a copy!

- Newspaper printing operation in progress showing pages zooming by the camera, barely discernible as Sunday comics (remote)
- Book spread from How Comics Were Made labeled Comics Syndication in Metal, showing the process with original art, negative, plates, and molds (remote)
- Cover of book How Comics Were Made: yellow on a purple background with images around the central title showing a cartoonist, Crazy Kat, a man running, a color proof of For Better or For Worse, Mutt pulling a level, a metal Doonesbury plate, and a pink Peanuts mold’s panel (remote)
