For Sale Cheap by Mr. Titus Wad—One Ten-Year-Old Boy's Suit

A Sunday comic strip by Gale following a haggling transaction over a child's worn suit. Mr. Wad attempts to sell the garment to a prospective buyer, presenting its flaws as merits across six panels. The strip employs the visual conventions established by newspaper comics in the early 1900s: sequential panels advancing a narrative, speech balloons for dialogue, and exaggerated character expressions. The humor derives from the gap between the suit's actual condition—mud-stained, poorly fitted, damaged—and the seller's increasingly desperate sales pitch. The strip's layout guides readers through the transaction's arc, from initial offer through the buyer's final rejection in heavy rain.
