Marc Deckter Challenge Day One

This great Sunday page was sponsored by Dennis Hyer. Thanks, Dennis!
Today was the first day of our bi-annual fundraising drive. Several readers stepped up and contributed to share some great vintage Sunday pages with you. There's still time to join in yourself and contribute to help us purchase hard drives to carry us through the next six months of digitization. Here's how it works...

Contribute $20 to the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive through the PayPal link below, and Marc will provide us with a vintage Sunday page to publish here on the website. Donate $50 and he will share three of them... donate $100 and he will allow us to post eight pages. Purchase one of these hard drives and have it shipped to the Archive, and Marc will post FORTY rare Sunday pages! Marc has classic Otto Messmer Felix the Cat, Chic Young's Blondie, Cliff Sterrett's Polly and Her Pals, Milt Gross Count Screwloose and other great pages ready to go. All you have to do to see them is contribute. As the total rises, Marc is prepared to throw in some extra treats, like he did last year. When you contribute, everyone benefits.
It's time to support the ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive...
We can all thank Matthew DeCoster, our latest Archive Hero for this mother lode of great Milt Gross and Otto Messmer pages...








To thank Matthew for his extra generous support, Marc Deckter is kicking in this special treat...

Next up is Archive supporter, Paul Higgins contributing to bring you these great Dave's Delicatessen strips...






And here's a special thank you to Brian Horst...

Every day for the next week or so, I'll post the names of the folks who are contributing to make this site possible along with the Sunday pages they sponsor. Please consider joining in and doing your part.
If you can, link to this post from your website or blog. Encourage your friends to join in the challenge. Let's all pull together, and take this project to the next level.
Thanks!
