The Sentinel (Staffordshire) - May Un Mar Lady

May Un Mar Lady

May un Mar Lady is a comic strip written in Potteries dialect that first appeared on 8 July 1986 in the North Staffordshire Evening Sentinel and has been a local institution for a quarter of a century. The full twenty-year run (7,000 strips) of cartoonist Dave Follows' daily cartoon strip was republished in The Sentinel, as May un Mar Lady Revisited.

Sentinel columnist Alan Cookman described the comeback as: "The most exciting homecoming since Stanley Matthews returned to Stoke from his footballing adventure with Blackpool."
