"The Gumps" Trade Ad
(from) Universal Weekly (Vol. 25 No. 06) March 19, 1927
The forgotten Universal Gump series of films based on the once popular comic strip. (The comic strip had a 42-year run. The book shown was one of a series of comic books from 1924 with the daily strips reprinted.)
Between 1923 & 1928, Universal Pictures produced at least four dozen “Andy Gump” two-reel comedies based on the popular comic strip by Sidney Smith. The film series starred Joe Murphy (1877–1961) as Andy Gump. (Murphy was one of the original Keystone Cops.) Fay Tincher was Min & Jack Morgan was Chester. Many of these shorts were directed by Norman Taurog, later famed as the leading director of Elvis Presley movies.
