Smilin' Jack

Smilin' Jack was an aviation/adventure strip created in 1933 by Zack Mosley. It didn't take long for Mosley to really settle into the style of cartooning that would define not only the strip but, in large part, the era in general. Just look at the middle panel: the crisp, economical linework and graceful caricatures! Smilin' Jack by Zack Mosley, 1936.
