Crazy Quilt (various artists), 1914     
Everett Lowry   Quin Hall   Lester J. Ambrose   Charles Lederer   Dean Cornell   Frank King  

Crazy Quilt was a full-page, sometimes interactive, Chicago Tribune feature that ran from April 12, 1914 to June 14, 1914. It consisted of untitled panel cartoons and the following series titles: And His Name Is Mr. Bones, Genial Gene, Simp Simpson, Old Doc Quack, Stone Age Stuff, Pinhead Pete, Hi Hopper, Freddy Frappe. Crazy Quilt was an unorthodox arrangement of strips and panels printed sideways, upside-down, criss-cross, etc. Notably, this feature used self-reflexivity; different artists working on individual strips interacted so that, for example: panel borders were breached by characters from one title entering a panel of another title, single panels that acted as the intersection between criss-crossing strips would include characters from both strips and would be incorporated into both storylines, etc.
