In today’s Barney Google and Snuffy Smith John Rose celebrates the 90th anniversary of Snuffy Smith.
Snuffy and “Lowizie” Smith first appeared in the Barney Google comic strip on November 17, 1934, but Snuffy was mention a couple days earlier. Since Comics Kingdom’s archive of Barney Google and Snuffy Smith only goes back to 1936 we here present ten daily comic strips by Billy DeBeck surrounding the introduction of Snuffy and Lowizie to the funny pages.
Background: A wedding is being planned.
As mentioned by John Rose in that top panel Snuffy quickly displaced Barney as the star of the strip.
