Bécassine second hand Figure (Loose) Plastoy

Bécassine was created by scriptwriter Jacqueline Rivière and illustrator Émile-Joseph-Porphyre Pinchon, and first appeared in the first issue of the girls' weekly La Semaine de Suzette on February 2, 1905.

Originally intended to fill a blank page in the French magazine La Semaine de Suzette on February 2, 1905, due to the defection of a sick author (or, according to another version, an advertising executive), this comic strip was written by the magazine's editor Jacqueline Rivière and drawn by Joseph Pinchon (1871-1953). 

It recounts a real-life blunder committed by the author's Breton servant. The name "Bécassine" was chosen by process of elimination to refer to this blunder: "bêtise", "bécasse" and then "Bécassine", which refers to a plump, naive young girl.
