When you’re so lost you’ve even lost your sense of the direction of words.

Nancy, by Ernie Bushmiller, from July 16, 1953.

A comic strip of a young girl, Nancy, talking on the phone to her aunt Fritzi. Nancy says, “I’m lost, Aunt Fritzi.” Her aunt says, “Where are you?” Nancy says, “I’m in a store.” Her aunt says, “What’s the name of the place?” Nancy says, “Etar Tuc Erots Gurd.” The last panel is an image of Nancy standing in the store looking at the large glass window on the front of the store, which says “Cut Rate Drug Store,” though it’s backwards from her perspective.
