    Pluperfect Pogo 1-1ST

    1st printing. By Walt Kelly. Edited by Mrs. Walt Kelly and Bill Crouch, Jr. Pogo, Pogavi, Pogatus: Lost Latin, found Okefenokeean; to have fun in a marsupial way; play possum; philosophize from a swamp. Pogo was once thought to be just a bunch of comic strips by a fellow named Walt Kelly, comic strips about a little possum, name of Pogo, and his fellow screechers in the Okefenokee Swamp-including Albert, a cigar-chomping alligator; Howland Owl, a scientific type; Churchy La Femme, a turtle by trade; the Okefenokee Glee and Perloo Society; and innumerable minor characters. We know better now. Pogo isn't just a bunch of comic strips, it's a nationwide cult. Quo Pogo? The murky mysteries of the Okefenokeean marsupial are revealed within. Softcover, 224 pages. B&W Cover price $10.95.
