Obscurity of the Day: The Second Mrs. Mac

You wouldn't think that a comic strip could sustain itself for long on this plot. Mister Mac has remarried, and his second wife compares unfavorably with the first. That's it.

Harold MacGill created this oddball item for distribution through Associated Newspapers, with a copyright to J.G. Lloyd. The strip began on August 16 1915 and ran daily through March 11 1916, when MacGill gave it up to start, or rather restart, Percy and Ferdie, formerly titled The Hallroom Boys in its first run.
