\"Flyin\' Jenny\" was a comic strip about an aviation adventure that ran from 1939 to 1946 and featured a female pilot named Jenny Dare as the protagonist. The strip was popular during a time when aviation was a significant part of the national interest and was known for its well-researched aviation details and exciting storylines.
In this particular strip, the date at the bottom is \"10-29,\" which could indicate that it was published on October 29th of a certain year within the strip\'s run. It features characters engaging in a conversation that seems to be a humorous misunderstanding about newlyweds and an airplane flying close to a window, causing some surprise. The art style is indicative of the period, with solid inking and clear, expressive characters, typical of the mid-20th century newspaper strips.
Russell Keaton, the artist, was known for his work in the aviation genre of comic strips, and \"Flyin\' Jenny\" was one of his most recognized works. The strip often included themes of adventure and was notable for having a strong female lead at a time when such characters were less common in media.
