comic art Incredibly rare hand-inked Dilbert strip 460. Scott Adams. Original hand-inked three panel Dilbert daily
comic strip, dated May 30, 1989, on a 14 x 5.5 off-white sheet of artist’s cardstock. Strip shows Dogbert criticizing Dilbert’s polka-dot tie, which is not missed by Dilbert. Signed vertically in the second panel, “S. Adams,” and signed and inscribed again in the top border, “Larry, thanks for being a Dilbert supporter, Scott Adams.” In fine condition. Created during the first two months of what would becoming a decades-long run—celebrating its 25th year of publication this April—and showing Dilbert wearing a different tie than in nearly every other strip, this is an incredibly rare piece of comic art: the first original Dilbert daily we have ever offered.
