Popeye And The Jackass General Frame:No frame © DC Thomson & CoHandmade screen print on cotton paper. Signed and numbered out of 200 in pencil by the printer, John Patrick Reynolds. Standard size: 26cm x 19cm Popeye and Olive Oyl are an archetypal couple they are obviously attracted to each other, but they often fall out and row, often bitterly. Although the characters have been around for nearly 100 years, the way they behave seems quite modern. Heres a great fanpage about Popeye: http: www. math. pitt. edu
