The three manuscript submissions present in this collection are all stylistically different, both in terms of graphics and humor, from his most famous comic strip "From Nine to Five". The variety of dates covered in this collection also demonstrate how "From Nine to Five" evolved over time; While, the original ink drawings found in this collection provide some insight into Mr. Fischer's illustrating process and its evolution over time.
