This print takes its name from Fritzi Ritz, the flapper heroine of a newspaper comic strip that King Features syndicated beginning in 1922, and the "Antique City View" label suggests a townscape rather than a comic panel. The archive record does not say who made the image or when, so its exact origin is uncertain. Still, its subject connects to the 1920s, when American cities were growing fast and illustrated newspaper strips reached millions of readers. Prints like this one show how popular cartoon characters and urban scenery came together in everyday décor of the period.
