up sticks/up stakes: eggcorn origin? (UNCLASSIFIED)

[James Harbeck]

>A glance at US popular culture: Dagwood Bumstead used this "cut out" (v.i.)
>= "leave" (in 1975). So did other conventional comic strip characters.

Are you willing to share how you found that cite? Serendipty, recall,
note cards, or is there an actual searchable database of comics?
