LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE

SUNDAY QUARTER PAGE COMIC STRIPS

By Leonard Starr

The LITTLE ORPHAN ANNIE comic strip, created by Harold Gray and distributed

 by Tribune Media Services, was in print from August 5, 1924 to June 13, 2010.  

After Gray’s death in 1968, the strip went through a number of artists and writers.  

Artists contributing to the strip included Bob Leffingwell, Henry Arnold, and Henry Raduta.   

Eventually Tex Blaisdell settled in for the artwork and Elliot Caplin did the scripts.  This team

 remained in place until late 1973.  In early 1974, David Lettick had a brief stint on the strip 

before the syndicate chose to revert to reprints of classic Gray stories.  In December 1979,

 the strip was jump started by Leonard Starr, who stayed with the newly retitled ANNIE until 

February 2000.  After Starr’s departure, the strip lapsed back into reprints until June 2000 when

 Jay Maeder assumed scripts and Andrew Pepov the artwork.  Pepov’s successors were 

Alan Kupperberg and,later, Ted Slampyak.  The strip limped along and finally ground

 to a close in 2010 after an impressive 86 year run.

The easiest way to do this is to place the items you

shopping cart, across from your name are the words in blue

"Request Total." Click these words and the request total page

 is generated that shows the items that you are committing

to buy and a box for a message to you the seller. You can now click

the blue box that states “Commit to Buy” & submit the request. 

This works best on a computer rather than a cell phone.

 If something goes wrong and eBay charges you the full amount,

don't worry, I will refund the excess when I pack your order.
