    American comic strip by Phil Frank

    Farley was an American comic strip written and drawn by Phil Frank, which appeared daily (except Saturday) in the San Francisco Chronicle.

    Publication history

    The strip began in as Travels With Farley, a play on John Steinbeck's Travels with Charley.[1]Farley began as a nationally syndicated strip with Chronicle Features,[2] but Frank missed the "timeliness and joy of doing local politics" and, dissatisfied with the four-to-six week lead time required of syndication, in switched to working exclusively for the Chronicle, which enabled him to quickly mine local events—usually overnight—for his satire.

    Phil Frank died on September 12, ,[3] shortly after announcing, on September 9, that he was retiring due to illness.[4] Reprints of the strip had been running for some months before this, as he had been too ill to work.[3]
