Picked up this wonderful Cisco Kid daily by the great Jose Luis-Salinas. Salinas was from Argentina and drew the Cisco Kid from 1951-1968. I obtained this strip from a family member who was good friends with Salinas. He told me Salinas gave some strips to his father when he was a boy. This is a great example, and you'll note how Salinas painstakingly painted the floral pattern on Cisco's shirt each and every time! I especially love the last panel featuring Cisco. One of the greats of the strip art era. (click for larger image)
