The New York Journal of Books said that the first volume of LOAC
Essentials(Baron Bean 1916) "sets the standard for archival
and reprint quality." The Washington Times wrote that it's
"beautiful. It showcases Mr. Herriman's developing style and his
move toward a combination of absurdity, surrealism, and art deco."
LOAC Essentials Volume 6 presents the second year of George
Herriman's much-lauded pre-Krazy Kat masterpiece. These strips are
nearly a century old and are reprinted here for the first time ever.
