Sleep is Power! - PUB 001

PUB 001
The Official Sleepy Steve Cartoon Collection
Media: Floppy Disks
Year: 2005
Details: two disks, a few paper comics

While I don't have too many pieces that belong in publications, I decided this would be placed there rather than in the personal collection as the significance has already made it to the internet. This is one of my favorite pieces simply because of the inscription on the box reading "All on two convenient 3 1/2" floppy disks formatted for Windows 2000 or lower."

For those who don't know, Sleepy Steve is a comic strip character who was invented by my friend Dan and based off of me. Basically he sleeps all the time. So for my birthday back in 2005 he gave me the only Official Sleepy Steve Cartoon Collection, on floppy disks or course (Dan was a bit behind technologically back then, but has since gotten much better). Needless to say I no longer own a working computer that still has a floppy drive attached, but luckily I have all the comics saved on a compact disk he later gave to me. The box included two floppy disks, some comics printed out, and a pin (not Sleepy Steve related however).

The writing on the box says,
Henry Green Products Presents...Henry Green by Daniel P.

  • All the HENRY GREEN Sleepy Steve Cartoons from 2003-2005 in JPEG Windows Format
