For 40 years, Murray Ball's 'Footrot Flats' has ruled both the New Zealand and Australian comic strip roost. In fact, "Dog" -- the central character in the Footrot Flats cartoon strips -- has been voted New Zealand's best-loved fictional character. Upstart Press presents 'The Essential Footrot Flats'. From more than 5,000 strips produced since the mid-1970s, the Ball family has hand-picked 450 strips, including 32 colour illustrations, to make up this compilation. This beautifully presented volume incorporates the highest possible production values. A must-own for all fans of the iconic strip.
