In Sydney during the early years of the war, collaborating via mail with Mary (in Perth), Elizabeth was producing a weekly comic strip for The Sunday Telegraph. Set again in northern Australia the strip covered three separate incidents: Nungulla & Jungulla and the Magic Bone; Nungulla & Jungulla and the Young White Chief; and Nungulla & Jungulla and The Great Drought. From a total of 53 episodes, 29 originals remain. Each page is drawn with pen and brush and black ink, some have colour guides. All measure 55 x 38 cms.

In 1944 the sisters published the entire strip in book form as A Book of Picture Stories (Imperial Printing Co Ltd, Perth.)
