Louis Wain Fact #79:
Louis Wain’s comic career is comparatively obscure and has since been almost entirely forgotten, but at the time was a major part of his work. In the UK he had a number of long-lasting series [such as Tom and Dick,] whereas his US series were sporadic and often shifting titles, including Adventures of Billy Kitten, Adventures of Toby Maltese, Adventures of Tom Scratch, Tom Catt, and The Velvetpaw Family.
