    This is the original 1945 edition published by McCay Features Synidicate. It can easily be confused with the 1969 reprint published by Nostalgia Press. In all essential features, the two editions are identical so collectors need to be aware that any copy they encounter is most likely the reprint. Wider than it is tall, this comic is is 11-in. x 7-in., two-tone black and brown ink cover with black and white interior pages, reprinting 14 classic Windsor McKay Sunday pages from 1905 to 1911. 1945 Edition. Introduction (13 August 1945) by author August Derleth. NOTE: Overstreet states that the original 1945 edition and the 1969 reprint are identical. However, the 1969 edition does have 36 pages (counting covers), so the 1945 edition, which Overstreet says has 24 pages, would be smaller at 24 pages assuming covers were not counted, or even at 28 pages if covers are added to the page count. Our guess is that both editions have 36 pages
