Wow. That's a shame, if true -- I hope the material will turn up one day.

When I started looking into King Aroo years ago (as a potential reprint project), I was already concerned about source material. (I had contacted Kent's son, though at the time, I wasn't aware that he had any proofs.) I was astonished to discover that there was a period where the strip was running in one single paper. I knew that was going to be a problem (though in this case, the material from 1954 wasn't from that era).
