Nancy Classics by Ernie Bushmiller for December 06, 2021

I think that it would look silly wearing a string for a few years.

I don’t think I could keep a pen for fifteen years without losing it.

By my calculations, in 1964, Nancy will be 8 years old.

So—this strip is from 1949??

1964—-in ’49, just imagine how futuristic that date seemed

Don’t worry, kid – I’m sure it will need refilling long before then. (And it probably writes under whipped cream, too!)

Ia that the same pen that John Cameron Swayze tied on the boat prop with the Timex watch?

You’re also going to have to change the string every few years as your finger size changes, Nancy…

15 years, or one cap slip in a white shirt, or one time through the washing machine.

Just wait till it runs out Nancy…dat pen will beep when it’s low in ink!

1964 WOW that was a long time ago. I believe I was in grade K.

She needs string that will remain clean for 15 years.

Nancy is the only one who uses the string on the finger.

Nancy’s very OCD.

I used to buy Sheaffer cartridge fountain pens back in the late 60’s and early 70’s.

Was wondering what year this was. 1949, WOW!
