The Potts

The Potts

The Potts is said to be the world's longest-running cartoon strip drawn by the same artist. The strip appeared in Australia's "The Sun News-Pictorial". It was syndicated in the United States from 1957 to 1962, during which time it was renamed Uncle Dick.

Artists included Jim Russell (for 62 years) and Stan Cross.
