"Say Im der Yellow Kid of Hogans Alley" is a notable poster created around 1900 by Richard Felton Outcault, an influential American cartoonist. This poster was used to advertise The Sunday World, a prominent newspaper of the time. The Yellow Kid, the central figure in the poster, is one of the earliest and most iconic characters in the history of American comic strips. The character originally appeared in Outcault's comic strip "Hogan's Alley," which was first published in 1895 in the New York World, a newspaper owned by Joseph Pulitzer.

The Yellow Kid is characterized by his bald head, oversized yellow nightshirt, and a mischievous grin. He became a symbol of the rough-and-tumble urban life of the late 19th century, often depicted in the chaotic and vibrant setting of Hogan's Alley, a fictional slum. The character's popularity was instrumental in the rise of the comic strip as a significant form of mass entertainment and a staple of American newspapers.

Outcault's creation of the Yellow Kid is also historically significant for its role in the so-called "Yellow Journalism" wars between Joseph Pulitzer's New York World and William Randolph Hearst's New York Journal. The fierce competition between these two media moguls led to sensationalist and often unscrupulous journalism practices, with the Yellow Kid becoming a mascot of sorts for this era.

The poster "Say Im der Yellow Kid of Hogans Alley" captures the essence of the character and the period, showcasing Outcault's distinctive artistic style and the cultural milieu of the time. It serves as an important artifact in the history of American popular culture, reflecting both the evolution of the comic strip medium and the broader social and media dynamics of the turn of the 20th century.
