Pair of approx. 14.75x20" artboards w/nine panels each of India ink original art by Charles "Doc" Winner, who took over writing/art duties from Harold Knerr upon Knerr's death in 1949. Artboards feature art for Feb. 8 and March 22, 1953. Feb. art shows Hans and Fritz asking to ride in Rollo's zebra cart. He tells them no and proceeds to make fun of Lena's horse riding skills.

Seventh panel has KFS copyright strip. Scattered dust soiling and aging, but Fine/VF overall w/Exc. art. Winner has signed last panel of both artboards and backs of each have photoengraver's stamps.
