Thanks for the update Jon and great to hear you are getting more JVJ books.
It's looking like a banner year for the project!

Now on the FTP Straight Arrow #19. Another JVJon book after quite a while. Next up is Straight Arrow #22 which will complete that series.

 Thank you. "Straight Arrow" is a wonderful series (I also love the Red Hawk back-up stories) and so many issues of that series have been added lately that the end is now in sight. Fabulous!

Now uploading to FTP

1925 Out Our Way dailies in two parts as I've decided these wonderful strips by Williams deserved larger treatment.

BTW Yoc or somebody, the 1922 file (the one not specifically labeled dailies) can be removed. It is missing the Christmas strip. Otherwise it's identical to the other file there.

Thanks Jon, file removed and new ones going up now.
BTW, could I get you to start using Zip or Cbz files in the future?
They cause less potential problems on our end.  No worry on previous uploads though.
Thanks!

I'll try to remember. I have winrar installed which I prefer for other things, so "zipping" defaults to that if I don't ask.

Thanks Jon.  CB+ is also asking people to ZIP if at all possible new uploads so we might as well ask for them as well right?

Just a note: WinRAR can be configured to default to either ZIP or RAR format when it creates new archives. I also configure mine to not store paths so it won't create a top level folder inside the ZIP file.

Done and done. Thanks Jon for finishing up with the last book of the Straight Arrow series.
Both are now up and available for downloading.

Looks like Bobby Benson is only missing 4½ panels in issue #19 and then that will be finished too.

Now going to FTP Vignettes of Life for 1925. This is sort of a weekly comic strip by Frank Godwin who is better known for his work on Connie and Rusty Riley. He also drew some Wonder Woman stories.   It's not exactly a comic strip, but exactly as it says vignettes.  It often appeared in the newspaper magazines rather than with the comics. It was printed in color or, in smaller newspapers, in b&w.  These are all b&w. They were all extracted from archives by me and cleaned up.  Personally I think Godwin's line art is stunning and I only hope I didn't do it too much of a disservice.

I also have all of 1924 to post I hope.  It began on June 1st of that year. The only copy of June 15th, titled "The Daily Dozen" that I have is so dark in it's lower right hand corner that I can't read the text to reconstruct.  If anyone knows of any newspapers that carried Vignettes of Life that early please let me know.  It was syndicated by the Philadelphia Ledger so if anyone can access microfilm of that paper please let me know.

Thanks,
Jon

Hi Jon,
I tried adding the file (after a slight rename) and it fails to work.
Downloads wont open it either.

Could you check it's Ok, maybe reupload it?
