Ferragosto with Sor Pampurio
Sor Pampurio is an Italian comic strip series created by Carlo Bisi.
Started in 1929, the comic strips were published, with some breaks, by Il Corriere dei Piccoli until 1978. Every episode starts depicting Sor Pampurio (“Mr. Pampurio”)’s happiness about his new house, a happiness that turns in a few frames, for a reason or another, in an increasing discontent and in a new moving at the end of any story.
Carlo Bisi (18 December 1890 – 27 February 1982, Italy) was the author of ‘Sor Pampurio’, one of the most popular comics of the Il Corrière dei Piccoli periodical. The series, about the life and times of an upper-middle-class Italian family appeared from 1929 to 1941.
The funny images, drawn in an almost two-dimensional style, were accompanied by funny rhymes. Bisi was a graduate of the Academy of Fine Arts of Parma. Later in his career, Bisi illustrated for several publishing houses.

Guido Crepax (15 July 1933 – 31 July 2003, Italy) was an Italian comics artist. He is most famous for his character Valentina, created in 1965 and very representative of the spirit of the 1960s. The Valentina series of books and strips became noted for Crepax’s sophisticated drawing, and for the psychedelic, dreamlike storylines, generally involving a strong dose of erotism. A film based on his work called Baba Yaga, featuring the character Valentina, was made in 1973.
