years' format experiments. January 7 – March 11, 1922: In the New York Journal, 10 weeks of Saturday full-page color strips, in addition to the ongoing Sunday full page black-and-white strips. (In other words, two original full-page strips every week). This is then canceled due to its lack of noticeable commercial success, compared to the new Saturday color sections in out-of-town Hearst papers which contained no Krazy Kat. August 1925 to September 1929: Sundays are confined to 3-row, split-middle-line format allowing some papers to reduce cartoon's size and reformat into two daily-sized rows. Summer 1934: Full page Sunday strips cease entirely, for roughly a year. June 1, 1935: Full page Sunday strips resume, now in color, until Herriman's death. December 11, 1938: "Optional" horizontal panel begins running on bottom of Sunday strips, as placeholder for potential advertising. June 3, 1944: Final daily strip published. June 25, 1944: Final Sunday strip published. Legacy In 1934, the live action film Babes in Toyland starring Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy the cat playing the fiddle (Peter Gordon) is repeatedly hit in the head with a brick by a mouse (a capuchin monkey) costumed to look similar to Disney's Mickey Mouse. In 1984, Cyndi Lauper pays homage to Krazy Kat in her song "Yeah Yeah" overdubbing the phrase in Krazy Kat's vocal style, "Ignatz, I love you" during the second verse. In 1994, the live action film Pulp Fiction starring John Travolta and Samuel L. Jackson, Krazy Kat, Ignatz Mouse and Officer Pup make an appearance printed on a pale blue T-shirt worn by Jackson's character Jules who had to hastily change his clothes after an accidental shooting in a car. In 1999, Krazy Kat was rated #1 in a Comics Journal list of the best American comics of the 20th century; the list included both comic books and comic strips. In 1995, the strip was one of 20 included in the Comic Strip Classics series of commemorative U.S. postage stamps. In 2004, a picture of Krazy Kat appears on the wall of the Goofy Goober bar in The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie alongside a picture of Popeye. Krazy Kat has continued to inspire artists and cartoonists to the present day. Chuck Jones's Wile E. Coyote and Road Runner shorts, set in a similar visual pastiche of the American Southwest, are among the most famous cartoons to draw upon Herriman's work. Patrick McDonnell, creator of
