The Semi-Authorized Krazy + Ignatz “Tiger Tea” Addendum # 21: August 13, 2025
Today’s episode:
Krazy Kat – A Freight Will Be Along! by George Herriman
The Nashville Tennessean, August 13, 2025
The Tiger Tea series was George Herriman’s longest-running Krazy Kat saga. Over the course of a year, the residents of Coconino County wrestled with the comical repercussions of a mysterious tea with hallucinogenic powers. As far as I know, this series has never been reprinted in its entirety.
Nearly 100 large reproductions of Tiger Tea daily strips are available in George Herriman’s Krazy + Ignatz in "Tiger Tea," a beautifully designed collection by Yoe Books. It’s available through Amazon.com and fine bookstores everywhere.
in an effort to make more of these classics available, this Unauthorized Semi-Authorized Addendum presents some of the comic strips from the Tiger Tea series that didn’t make it into the printed collection. Click here to see more posts in this series.

It’s an awesome book. I’m always flat-out staggered by Herriman’s genius. Someday I hope to write about him, but I know my limitations. I know now is not the time!
