''Polly and Her Pals'' is an American comic strip created by cartoonist Cliff Sterrett, which ran from 1912 until 1958. It is regarded as one of the most graphically innovative strips of the 20th century. It debuted as ''Positive Polly'' on December 4, 1912 in William Randolph Hearst's newspapers, initially the ''New York Journal''. ==Characters and story== *Polly Perkins - The nominal star of the strip was a pretty young girl, a flirtatious child of the Suffragette movement and a precursor of the Jazz Age 1920s flappers. Over time, the center of the action changed from Polly to those around her, and thus the title changed to ''Polly and Her Pals''—though the "pals" were in fact members of her family: her parents and cousins. *Paw (aka Sam'l or Sambo) Perkins - Polly's excitable father, the main character and real star of the strip. *Maw (aka Suzie) Perkins - Polly's headstrong mother was the one with common sense, who usually sided with Polly. *Ashur Earl Perkins - Staying with them was their dimwitted nephew Ash, a font of bad advice. *Carrie - Paw's sister-in-law, a constant house guest (and irritant). *Gertrude - Carrie's precocious, spoiled brat of a daughter. *Neewah - The family's Japanese houseboy, who mostly did not understand what was going on (or pretended not to). *Kitty - An ever-present black housecat, who sometimes played a comic part in the strips. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Polly and Her Pals」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
