Seein' Stars by Feg Murray

A Hollywood gossip strip featuring caricatured celebrity profiles and studio trivia. This panel introduces Bing Crosby's distinctive laryngeal wart and Margaret Sullavan's swimming prowess alongside Heather Angell's pet alley cat—typical of the column's format: large portrait drawings paired with brief biographical anecdotes. Murray's strip exemplifies the newspaper comics tradition of personality journalism, where recurring illustrated features brought entertainment-world minutiae directly into daily papers. The heavy caricature style, detailed cross-hatching, and integration of word and image reflect the commercial illustration techniques that defined early comic strip visual language—panel layouts and speech balloons inherited from nineteenth-century newspaper comics and adapted for celebrity reportage.
