The family of legendary Batman artist Jerry Robinson, who passed away in December 2011 at age 89, has donated 60 original comic strips to the Cartoon Art Museum in San Francisco.

According to SF Weekly, the pieces dating back to the turn of the 20th century include just one of Robinson's own comics, a 1954 installment of Jet Scott, a sci-fi strip about an adventurer with the Office of Scientifact who's called in to tackle strange threats. Among the highlights of the donation are Wash Tubbs by Roy Crane, Li'l Abner by Al Capp, Baron Bean by George Herriman, Pogo by Walt Kelly and two pieces by Winsor McCay, including a hand-painted installment of Dream of the Rarebit Fiend.

Curator Andrew Farago, who became friends with Robinson and his family, said those are the first McCay originals to be included in the museum's permanent collection.

Robinson, who co-created Robin and the Joker, and later became widely respected for his work has a comics historian and creators' rights advocate, was presented with the Cartoon Art Museum's lifetime achievement award in 2011.
