This one was made by Clifton Meek who did some of these in the early years. Meek's lettering is a lot clearer than A.D. Condo's, though his ~~characters~~ people drawn are about the same quality and in this strip at least, he seems to have skipped the backgrounds.

Definitely appreciate the cleaner lettering but I do miss the intricate background ngl
