Lazyest Gallery cannot access Brinkley, Nell/
We’re heading back to the Nell Brinkley archive for another short series of portraits: I Know a Girl There! Once again I’ve only located a handful which is hard to believe as this seems an idea that could easily sustain itself for dozens of cities. I’m hopeful I’ll at least stumble upon Chicago some day…for now enjoy the few we have.
Featuring John T. McCutcheon, Tad Dorgan, Carey Orr, Clare Briggs, E. A. Batchelor, Hal Coffman, Jack Callahan, Tom McNamara, George Herriman, Harry Hershfield, Cliff Sterrett, Fontaine Fox, Jean Knott, Rube Goldberg, T. E. Powers, and Nell Brinkley.

I’ve added a handful of these odes to old flames to our Nell Brinkley archive; I’m guessing there may be more of them out there, but these are all I’ve been able to find thus far. If you think the illustrations are overwrought, wait until you get to the text…sheesh! I say that with affection, of course.
