---- Here the adventures of Barney Google and Spark Plug Book 4 edited in 1926 and restored by Comic Books Restore.---- Spark PlugBeginning on July 17 1922 the strip took a momentous turn in popularity with the seemingly innocuous introduction of an endearing race horse named Spark Plug. Barney's beloved brown-eyed baby was a bow-legged nag that seldom raced and was typically seen almost totally covered by his trademark patched blanket with his name scrawled on the side.Sparky's first race became one of comics' first national media events eagerly anticipated by millions of newspaper readers. So great was the public's enthusiasm that DeBeck who had been planning to retire the plug after that one storyline made him a permanent part of the cast. Spark Plug was such a star during the 1920s that children who enjoyed the comics were liable to get Sparky for a nickname.
