Little Nemo in Slumberland

I first heard about this old comic strip a year or two ago from a friend, and it has since become one of my favorite Children's illustration series. Little Nemo was created by Winsor McCay in the early 1900's for several esteemed New York newspapers. With its dark themes and fantastical illustration style, it was exceedingly ahead of its time.






Books of the series are grandiose at 21 x 16.2 inches in size and can be purchased online for remarkably reasonable prices.
