Larry Whittington (1903-1942) achieved his dubious claim to fame for creating and then abandoning the comic strip Fritzi Ritz (which would later become a huge success under the guidance of its replacement cartoonist, Ernie Bushmiller) to create a new flapper strip for the New York Mirror. Mazie (the strip and the character) was a clone of Fritzi, except where Fritzi was an actress, Mazie was a model. The strip ended in 1928, though its backstock kept it in publication until 1931.
