Final Appearance Of

WEARY WILLIE & TIRED TIM

Chips #2997 (12th September 1953)

 


After a phenomenal run of over 57 years, Weary Willie and Tired Tim finally strike it lucky as they succeed in making the mouse trap millionaire, Murgatroyd Mump, laugh for the first time in 50 years.

From 1909-1953, the Weary Willie and Tired Tim strip were drawn by Percy Cocking.

This was the very last issue of Chips (previously Illustrated Chips) before its old style format proved unpopular with the youngsters. The following week it got incorporated into Film Fun.
