archy and mehitabel by don marquis is a collection of newspaper columns in verse without kapitalization or punctuation except occasionally published between 1916 and 1936
filled with social and politikal commentary along with a very wry perspective on human foibles and the vagaries of life for all life forms
wonderful stylized illustrations by george herriman who wuz also the author of the krazy kat comics
first half of the full collection is highly recommended interest peters out in the second half
marquis's hit play old soak wuz definitely of it time its humor does not hold up at all
always speshial thanks to david plell and powerbleeder for our muzak
