The year 1964 was a momentous one in the history of Gasoline Alley
- it&s when Frank King officially handed the baton to Dick Moores King continued to help plot the strip but it&s Dick Moores who takes center stage More so than any other newspaper strip Gasoline Alley is renowned for its strict continuity & this is our chance to see Moores
- who continued writing & drawing the strip until 1986
- make it his own Forty-plus years earlier Walt Wallet found baby Skeezix in a basket on his doorstep & in the 1964-1966 strips reproduced in this volume Skeezix is now middle-aged & has a family of his own For the first time since they appeared in newspapers fifty years ago readers can enjoy these classic strips featuring Walt & his wife Phyllis Skeezix & his wife Nina Corky Clovia Slim Avery Mr Pert Joel Rufus & a whole cast of familiar characters " This is Gasoline Alley at its finest Once you&ve read this beautifully designed book & seen Moore&s art & stories up close it will be hard to put down
- & you&ll be craving for more" -Michael Taube The Washington Times
