An instalment from March 1925
Bunty and the Car was a daily strip by H. O. Batho that ran in the Belfast Telegraph from 5 February to 3 July 1925. Bunty was a spoiled young flapper who was given a car by her father for her birthday, and the strip was a mix of motoring jokes and situational comedy involving Bunty and her family, friends and suitors.
The Belfast Telegraph was almost certainly not the strip's first home. There is at least one strip relating to a general election involving the Conservative, Labour and Liberal parties. There was a general election in 1924, and Northern Ireland has and had different political parties, so it's likely the strip originally ran in a British paper in 1924.
