Meet the REAL
Sugar and Spike!!!
What inspired Sheldon Mayer
to create a series of comics on the misadventures of two little adorable
toddlers?
He had great source material
-- Merrily and Lanney, were his children - both born in the mid 40's.
Here are more shots of Merrily!
Merrily, the lil' "Sugar", dated
1944
And in 1946
The Bronx Zoo, 1946
Tale behind the above picture,
from Merrily Mayer herself: "My Dad told me that these were total strangers
that I just moved out of my way so I could see whatever it was that was
behind the bars."
