Jimmie Visits the Frog Twins
Hi Readers once again, Here’s a very early episode of Jimmy Acorn from Children’s Activities June and July 1953, featuring Jimmy’s visit to Croakie and Hoppie, the Frog Twins. The Twins get a big laugh out of Jimmy’s attempt to hop like a frog. Mollie Snail comes along in the second page and Jimmy is fascinated by her shell, a home she carries around with her. Jimmy invites Mollie to nest in the cracks in his Old Oak Tree home. I hope to find the first episode of Jimmy Acorn one of these days. I found this one on Ebay. Enjoy! Your bloggin’ pal, Mark

These Jimmie and The Frog Twins comics are charming and fabulous. Yours truly, Annie and Raymond the cat send our kudos, bravos and best wishes from the chilly but charming Hudson Valley!

Thanks Paul, Annie and Raymond for your nice comment. I’m glad that you find Jimmie Acorn to be “charming and fabulous”. These are really stories more than comics, but the drawings certainly bend towards comic. Enjoy your stay in the Hudson Valley!
