Chic Young Hand-Drawn ''Blondie'' Sunday Comic Strip From 1954 -- Thinking She's Getting a New Negligee, Blondie Instead Gets an Ironing Board for a Present, While Dagwood Gets Clobbered

''Blondie'' Sunday comic strip hand-drawn and signed by Chic Young published on 19 December 1954. In this laugh-out-loud strip, Mr. Dithers asks Dagwood to buy a seductive negligee for his secretary. A comedy of errors ensues, as Blondie thinks Dagwood is cheating on her, and adding insult to injury, she gets an ironing board for a gift. Titled ''Ribbons and Bows!''. Strip measures 19.75'' x 17.5'' in two pieces, as drawn. Very good to near fine condition. From the Chic Young estate.
