The Neighbors (comic strip)

The Neighbors was an American gag-a-day comic strip, created by George Clark, which ran from April 24, 1939, to 1976.

[1] Clark launched The Neighbors in 1939 with the Chicago Tribune-New York Daily News Syndicate.

Similar to his earlier Side Glances (1928-1939),[1] it explored subtle aspects of middle-class family humor.

Stephen Becker (Comic Art in America) commented, "He has never attempted to induce the belly laugh; he feels that a gently humorous reminder of something that has probably happened to his reader will suffice.

"[2][3] Clark received the National Cartoonists Society's Newspaper Panel Cartoon Award in 1961.
