Foxy Grandpa

Carl 'Bunny' Schultze's *Foxy Grandpa* follows an elderly man and his two young grandsons through domestic pranks and comic misadventures. Here, the boys attempt to photograph their grandfather, leading to escalating slapstick gags played across six panels. The strip employs the visual vocabulary pioneered by newspaper comics: sequential panels with clear scene breaks, expressive body language, and minimal text. *Foxy Grandpa* ran as a Sunday feature starting in 1900 and established the multigenerational family as a reliable framework for humor. Schultze's clean line work and timing influenced cartoonists working in the emerging medium of the comic strip, which would soon define popular visual narrative in America.
