Description
This is a restored "distressed" reproduction of the cover of Buster Brown, His Dog Tige and Their Jolly Times with Illustrations by American illustrator Richard F. Outcault, 1863-1928, published in 1906. Outcault was the creator of the highly successful early twentieth century cartoon series The Yellow Kid and Buster Brown.
Buster Brown is a comic strip character created in 1902 by Richard F. Outcault. Adopted as the mascot of the Brown Shoe Company in 1904, Buster Brown, his sister Mary Jane, and his dog Tige, were well known to the American public in the early 20th century. The character's name was also used to describe a popular style of suit for young boys, the Buster Brown suit, that echoed his own outfit.
The Fine Art America logo does not appear on the final product.
