    Toucan Sam is the cartoon toucan mascot for Froot Loops breakfast cereal.

    The character has been featured in advertising since the 1960s.

    all have info about this artist, perhaps in addition to what’s pointed to by the first URL. So far, 11 works by him have been used here (11 times, this repeated with a different caption). 

    http://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2015/08/17?comments=visible 

    has the prior strip, which sadly, though my comment text is there with the line breaks removed, its 18 hyperlinks remain inactive. 

    http://www.gocomics.com/that-is-priceless/2014/12/04?comments=visible 

    has the 1st time this was used (with the different caption), which sadly, though my comment text is there with the line breaks removed, its 19 hyperlinks remain inactive. &?@#!#%&!

     

    Again, a slightly larger strip image is shown by clicking the image in Mr. Melcher’s MASTERPIECE #2042 (September 18, 2018) blog entry, accessible by the Check out the blog! box after the last comment.
