Indexer Notes

Script (and drawings) credit as per Michael Barrier, page 132, Funnybooks : The Improbable Glories of the Best American Comic Books (UC Press, Oakland, 2015). Barrier considers this to be among Stanley's earliest comics work to have been totally his, both script and drawings. (The strip's previous writer, Gaylord Du Bois, had concluded his own run on the Andy Panda comic strip in New Funnies #87, while Du Bois's writing the Andy Panda text stories continued through Walter Lantz New Funnies #144.)
Previous indexer credited Dan Gormley on art.

New Funnies #87 contains a 2-page text story, "Andy Bakes a Cake," by Gaylord Du Bois (as per Du Bois's Account Books), the synopsis of which text story has as yet not been indexed. Did that Du Bois text story influence John Stanley's writing this comics story?
