A full Sunday comic page of sixteen panels sits under the title Little Nemo in Slumberland, spelled out in large decorated letters. Nemo and his friend Flip share a bed whose legs begin to grow; in tall, narrow panels it strides on stilt-like legs over streets, trolley cars and rooftops under a full moon, until it tangles and tips them off. In the last panel Nemo lies on the floor beside his own bed. Winsor McCay drew the page for the Sunday New York Herald, and it is printed "Copyright, 1908, by the New York Herald Co." Little Nemo in Slumberland had begun there on October 15, 1905, as an all-color, full-page Sunday strip.

Here the bed starts "growing" and "walking" as Flip crowds in, and the panels stretch upward to fit its legs; at the end Nemo wakes, glad he was only dreaming. The Library of Congress notes that McCay drew intricate worlds that bordered on surrealism, including buildings that could walk, and traces the strip's influence from Maurice Sendak's In the Night Kitchen to the animation of Hayao Miyazaki. McCay went on to animate Nemo, Impie and Flip in his first film, released by Vitagraph on April 8, 1911. The page first ran in the New York Herald in 1908.
