From NPR: Little Orphan Annie is retiring on June 13th after 85 years in the comics. To read the story, go to: http://tinyurl.com/34n38vw
I never read this comic strip when newspapers were in vogue, although it was always right there with all the other strips in any newspaper you could find..
I just couldn't get past her white eyes with no pupils. Too weird.

I don't have a comment on "Little Orphan Annie," but I do have a question about a very old H. Newton painting I own. It was damaged when a tree fell on our house during a hurricane. It isn't torn but there are some light beige spots in the clouds. Do you know of anyone who restores Newtons? Do you know if any of the younger Newtons would do something like this or would you recommend we go to a restorer? Thanks for the help
I generally use Tom Wagner Fine Arts in Naples. Depending on the damage or the dirt or the paint loss, it may not need a professional. I would have to see it to know.
I know that Sam Newton has done some restoration of his brother's work in the past, but to mixed results.
