By Eastern Color

Now you can enjoy again - or, for the first time -Napoleon and Uncle Elby was a popular syndicated newspaper comic strip created by Clifford McBride. Over a span of 29 years it was distributed by three different syndicates to both American and foreign newspapers. By the mid-1940s, the strip was carried by 80 newspapers.While drawing such features as McBride's Cartoon (1927) and Clifford McBride's Pantomime Comic (1932), McBride introduced Elby, a character based on his uncle, Wisconsin lumberman Henry Elba Eastman. He soon began to add situations involving Elby's dog, Napoleon. 1]For a minor syndicate, LaFave Newspaper Features, McBride began Napoleon as a daily strip on June 6, 1932, reaching a wider audience once he connected with the McNaught Syndicate. His Sunday strip was added in 1933, and the following year, the title was changed to Napoleon and Uncle Elby.The comic reprints from are reproduced from actual classic comics, and sometimes reflect the imperfection of books that are decades old
