Clarence Gray's Brick Bradford_ (June 21, 1942)
_BRICK BRADFORD_ was a science fiction comic strip created by writer William Ritt, a journalist based in Cleveland, and artist Clarence Gray. It was first distributed in 1933 by Central Press Association, a subsidiary of King Features Syndicate which specialized in producing material for small-town newspapers.[1]
Ritt grew tired of _Brick Bradford_ in the mid-1940s, and by 1948 he had turned over first the daily and then the Sunday to Gray, who did the strip by himself until his health problems increased. In 1952, Paul Norris (who had been working on King's _Jungle Jim_) took over the daily. When Gray died in 1956, Norris took over the Sunday strip. Norris retired in 1987, and the strip was retired as well with the daily ending April 25, 1987 and the Sundays two weeks later.
"Brick Bradford" achieved its greatest popularity outside the United States. "Brick Bradford" was carried by both newspapers and comic books in Australia and New Zealand. In France, the strip was known as "Luc Bradefer" (Luke Ironarm), and was published in many newspapers.[2] The strip was also widely published in Italy.[2]

Characters and Story[Edit]
The titular hero, Brick, was a redheaded aviator who continually encountered fantastic situations.[1] Initially, the strip was focused on Earth-bound, aviation-focused adventures, in a similar manner to _Skyroads_. However, as the strip developed, _Brick Bradford_ increasingly featured fantastic elements in the manner of _Buck Rogers_ and _Flash Gordon_. Ritt was an admirer of science fiction writers H. G. Wells, Edgar Rice Burroughs and Abraham Merritt, and drew on some of their ideas when writing "Brick Bradford".[2] _Brick Bradford_ now became more of a space opera/adventure story, with its tales of dinosaurs, lost civilizations, intergalactic villains, robots and subatomic worlds.[1] By 1935, _Brick Bradford'_s popularity had greatly increased, and it arrived in the Sunday comics sections of major newspapers in 1933, followed by a weekend edition that began November 24, 1934. In the daily strips Brick kept company with his friend, Sandy Sanderson, scientist Kalla Kopak, and June Salisbury, Brick's girlfriend and daughter of his ally, Van Atta Salisbury.[2] The Sunday strips featured completely different characters and plots. Here Brick was often accompanied on his adventures by Professor Horatio Southern and his daughter April, who was Brick's love interest .[1] Brick's enemies included Dr. Franz Ego, a spy; Avil Blue, inventor of a giant robot; and the "Assassins", descendants of the Middle Eastern sect of the same name.[2]
On April 20, 1935, the strip added a time machine, the Time Top, that traveled to both past and future, presaging Doc Wonmug's device in _Alley Oop_ four years later.[1]

Reprints[Edit]
_Brick Bradford_ was reprinted in comic-book form as King Features began to expand into that genre, including _King Comics_ (published by David McKay Publications), starting from April 1936 (along with _Barney Google_, _Henry_,_Popeye_ and _Bringing Up Father_ among others), as well as in _Ace Comics_ from 1947 to 1949. As the old comics were reprinted, a new series starring Brick was published by Standard Comics, but the series was soon canceled after 4 issues.
_Brick Bradford_ reappeared by 1966 in original comics published by King Comics. _Brick Bradford_ stories appeared as back-up strips in _The Phantom_ #26, 28 and _Mandrake the Magician_ #5–7, 9, 10.[3]
In the 1970s, the Pacific Comics Club reprinted several Brick Bradford stories in book form.[4] Numerous Brick Bradford stories were reprinted in Italian and French booklets.[4]

_Brick Bradford_ in Other Media[Edit]
The strip also had a movie based on it, as well as a book series produced by Whitman Publishing's Big Little Books.
_Brick Bradford_, a 15-chapter serial starring Kane Richmond, was produced by Columbia Pictures in 1947.[5]
_Brick Bradford_ was referenced in the 1965 _The Dick Van Dyke Show_ episode "Uhny Uftz" when Rob believe he has seen a flying saucer with the "Brick Bradford insignia" on it, which he describes as being like a lightning bolt.
Time Top Sculpture[Edit]
Before his death from cancer, Canadian artist Jerry Pethick (1935 – 2003) conceived a large bronze sculpture in the shape of the Time Top as depicted in later installments of _Brick Bradford_. In 2004, his widow, Margaret Pethick, took over the project. It was submerged in sea water for two years while connected to an electrical source to accelerate barnacle and mineral accretion on its surface for an aged look. In August 2006, the sculpture was installed on its permanent site at False Creek, Vancouver, British Columbia.[6][7]

Clarence Gray's Brick Bradford_ (June 21, 1942)
_BRICK BRADFORD_ was a science fiction comic strip created by writer William Ritt, a journalist based in Cleveland, and artist Clarence Gray. It was first distributed in 1933 by Central Press Association, a subsidiary of King Features Syndicate which specialized in producing material for small-town newspapers.[1]
Ritt grew tired of _Brick Bradford_ in the mid-1940s, and by 1948 he had turned over first the daily and then the Sunday to Gray, who did the strip by himself until his health problems increased. In 1952, Paul Norris (who had been working on King's _Jungle Jim_) took over the daily. When Gray died in 1956, Norris took over the Sunday strip. Norris retired in 1987, and the strip was retired as well with the daily ending April 25, 1987 and the Sundays two weeks later.
"Brick Bradford" achieved its greatest popularity outside the United States. "Brick Bradford" was carried by both newspapers and comic books in Australia and New Zealand. In France, the strip was known as "Luc Bradefer" (Luke Ironarm), and was published in many newspapers.[2] The strip was also widely published in Italy.[2]

Characters and Story[Edit]
The titular hero, Brick, was a redheaded aviator who continually encountered fantastic situations.[1] Initially, the strip was focused on Earth-bound, aviation-focused adventures, in a similar manner to _Skyroads_. However, as the strip developed, _Brick Bradford_ increasingly featured fantastic elements in the manner of _Buck Rogers_ and _Flash Gordon_. Ritt was an admirer of science fiction writers H. G. Wells, Edgar Rice Burroughs and Abraham Merritt, and drew on some of their ideas when writing "Brick Bradford".[2] _Brick Bradford_ now became more of a space opera/adventure story, with its tales of dinosaurs, lost civilizations, intergalactic villains, robots and subatomic worlds.[1] By 1935, _Brick Bradford'_s popularity had greatly increased, and it arrived in the Sunday comics sections of major newspapers in 1933, followed by a weekend edition that began November 24, 1934. In the daily strips Brick kept company with his friend, Sandy Sanderson, scientist Kalla Kopak, and June Salisbury, Brick's girlfriend and daughter of his ally, Van Atta Salisbury.[2] The Sunday strips featured completely different characters and plots. Here Brick was often accompanied on his adventures by Professor Horatio Southern and his daughter April, who was Brick's love interest .[1] Brick's enemies included Dr. Franz Ego, a spy; Avil Blue, inventor of a giant robot; and the "Assassins", descendants of the Middle Eastern sect of the same name.[2]
On April 20, 1935, the strip added a time machine, the Time Top, that traveled to both past and future, presaging Doc Wonmug's device in _Alley Oop_ four years later.[1]

Reprints[Edit]
_Brick Bradford_ was reprinted in comic-book form as King Features began to expand into that genre, including _King Comics_ (published by David McKay Publications), starting from April 1936 (along with _Barney Google_, _Henry_,_Popeye_ and _Bringing Up Father_ among others), as well as in _Ace Comics_ from 1947 to 1949. As the old comics were reprinted, a new series starring Brick was published by Standard Comics, but the series was soon canceled after 4 issues.
_Brick Bradford_ reappeared by 1966 in original comics published by King Comics. _Brick Bradford_ stories appeared as back-up strips in _The Phantom_ #26, 28 and _Mandrake the Magician_ #5–7, 9, 10.[3]
In the 1970s, the Pacific Comics Club reprinted several Brick Bradford stories in book form.[4] Numerous Brick Bradford stories were reprinted in Italian and French booklets.[4]

_Brick Bradford_ in Other Media[Edit]
The strip also had a movie based on it, as well as a book series produced by Whitman Publishing's Big Little Books.
_Brick Bradford_, a 15-chapter serial starring Kane Richmond, was produced by Columbia Pictures in 1947.[5]
_Brick Bradford_ was referenced in the 1965 _The Dick Van Dyke Show_ episode "Uhny Uftz" when Rob believe he has seen a flying saucer with the "Brick Bradford insignia" on it, which he describes as being like a lightning bolt.
Time Top Sculpture[Edit]
Before his death from cancer, Canadian artist Jerry Pethick (1935 – 2003) conceived a large bronze sculpture in the shape of the Time Top as depicted in later installments of _Brick Bradford_. In 2004, his widow, Margaret Pethick, took over the project. It was submerged in sea water for two years while connected to an electrical source to accelerate barnacle and mineral accretion on its surface for an aged look. In August 2006, the sculpture was installed on its permanent site at False Creek, Vancouver, British Columbia.[6][7]

Please note: collecting and selling comics has been my hobby for over 30 years. Due to the hours of my job i can usually only mail packages out on saturdays. I send out first class or priority mail which takes 2-5 days to arrive in the usa and air mail international which takes 10 days or more depending on where you live in the world. I do not "sell" postage or packaging and charge less than the actual cost of mailing. I package items securely and wrap well. Most pages come in an archival sleeve with acid free backing board at no extra charge. If you are dissatisfied with an item. Let me know and i will do my best to make it right.
Many thanks to all of my 1,000's of past customers around the world.
enjoy your hobby everyone and have fun collecting!
