Lads

The picture above is a panel from 'Dotty Dimple's Doings', and was published in American newspapers in 1904. 'Dotty Dimple' is a character that appeared years before, in the children's books by Sophie May (published in 1867-1869). It is possible the artist revived Dotty into a comic strip, but we are not sure. The artist has signed his work with "Lads". Thus far, we have been unable to discover the artist's real name. If anyone can give us a hint, we would be very grateful.
