In 1929, Charles Forbell launched a comic strip in which a flapper (a Roaring '20s party girl) travels in time back to Camelot. Almost no one noticed this thing, but the art is cool, and it's the first Camelot in serial American comics.

Forbell had worked separately on a previous flapper strip and on single-panel cartoons about Dayes of Olde... but it took a Mark Twain twist to bring them together. He also did lots of art for clothing ads. Much time is spent in this strip on Cuddles modeling various clothes.
