The Essential Footrot Flats

Incorporating the very best of the hugely successful Kiwi icon, this collection features more than 450 comic strips, selected by the Ball family

For 40 years, Murray Ball’s "Footrot Flats" has ruled both the New Zealand and Australian comic strip roost. In fact, "Dog"—the central character in the Footrot Flats cartoon strips — has been voted New Zealand’s best-loved fictional character. Now, from more than 5,000 strips produced since the mid-1970s, the Ball family has hand-picked 450 strips, including 32 color illustrations, to make up this "best of" compilation. This beautifully presented volume incorporates the highest possible production values and will be the final Footrot Flats book ever produced. Accordingly, it will be a must-own for all fans of iconic strip.
