See the legendary comic strip as its creator intended: full broadsheet-sized and with glorious colors.
In 2005, the publication of Little Nemo in Slumberland: So Many Splendid Sundays, the oversized deluxe reprint edition, marked the centennial of Winsor McCay's supreme graphic achievement. That book astounded the world of comics and art, becoming the most highly praised book of its kind.
This new collection presents more of those famed Sunday newspaper pages -- a "best of" collection from 1906 to 1924, with examples from all three incarnations of Little Nemo. This includes pages from the Hearst series, "In the Land of Wonderful Dreams," as well as pages from Little Nemo's return to the NY Herald in 1924. Presenting 110 more digitally-restored pages, presented in their original size and colors, including many pages that have never been reprinted before in any format. Plus, as a bonus, each book comes with a facsimile of a vintage Gertie the Dinosaur animation flip-book.
WINNER - Will Eisner Award, 2009: Best Archival Collection, Strips
