Reprinting 1932-1933 \"first\" appearance of Alley Oop.\u003c\/em\u003e Alley Oop was first distributed by the small syndicate Bonnet-Brown on December 5, 1932, but this run ended on April 26, 1933, when Bonnet-Brown became defunct.\n\nNEA picked up the strip and, starting on August 7, 1933, the earlier material was reworked for a larger readership. A full-page Sunday strip was added on September 9, 1934; the strip also appeared in half-page, tabloid, and half-tab formats, which were smaller and\/or dropped panels. During World War II, newspapers eliminated full-page comics to save paper; starting on December 1, 1940, Alley Oop's Sunday comic was offered in a smaller format which could, at an editor's discretion, be further reconfigured to save space. Daily comics were first reduced in size on April 20, 1942, and have become smaller since then, but they have been appearing in color since September 15, 2008.\n\nStories Included: \u003cem\u003e\"Early One Morning A Million Years Ago\"\u003c\/em\u003e - 12-5-1932 To 1-3-1933 - Written \u0026amp; Drawn By - V.T, Hamlin.\n\n\u003cem\u003e\"Hieaagh!
