Gustave Verbeek's Upside Down Comics

I BOUGHT a book with drawings of Gustave Verbeek. What a gem it is ! It features little comic strips you can turn upside down and just read on ! How much of a genius can one be ? Especially if you take into account these little masterpieces were created between 1903 and 1905. Here's a fine example of the series "Little Lady Lovekins and Old Man Muffaroo". Awesome title or what ?
