THIS WILL BE VERY WELL PACKAGED AND SHIPPED WITH INSURANCE FOR THE PURCHASE PRICE The character of Buster Brown was loosely based on Granville Hamilton Fisher, a son of Charles and Anna Fisher of Flushing, New York. Fisher's physical appearance, including the characteristic pageboy haircut, was copied by Outcault and given to Buster Brown. The name "Buster" came directly or indirectly from the popularity of Buster Keaton, then a child actor in vaudeville. Another boy, Roger Cushman Clark (1899–1995) of Deadwood, South Dakota, was also described as the "original model" for the Buster Brown character.
