Notes

Bil Keane's The Family Circus, dated 9-24, © 1999 Bil Keane, Inc., distributed by King Features Syndicate. A mother hugs her son from behind while he holds a glass of milk; the hand-lettered caption reads “PJ has a milkstache.”

Reproduced in Milk Mustache Mania on the page for Hi and Lois and The Family Circus, which introduces the two strips as “comic strips with a similar theme.”

The book's page introduces this strip and the Hi and Lois strip by saying that television shows, magazines, newspapers and movies, from Saturday Night Live to Mad magazine, have used the campaign to get smiles from their audiences.
