NotesCROSSDRAW KID is a western comic written and drawn by Len Brandt (the penname of Ambrose Dyson), and published by Main Publishing in 1949. Main Publishing didn’t live up to its name, publishing only two titles that ran for two or three issues each before vanishing. You’ll see from the story title that the casual racism of this story isn’t going to please some readers.

Ambrose Dyson came from a creative family - his father, Ambrose Dyson Sr, was a cartoonist; his uncle Will was a wartime artist, and is unle Ted was a writer for the Bulletin magazine. But he grew up poor, his father having died by the time Ambrose was five, and he left school at the age of 14, providing manual labour to support his mother. In his late 20s he studied at and became a cartoonist. His biggest publication was 'The calamitous career of Dictator Bob', a million copies printed, as part of the campaign to defeat a referendum to outlaw communism in Australia. (Dictator Bob was a caricature of Bob Menzies, the Prime Minister of Australia.)The referendum was defeated. Ambrose died in the year following that referendum, aged 43.

A note on pages and page numbering: I have left out two pages from the scan, because they were blank. The inside cover (which would be numbered 2, if a page number was printed on it) and the inside back cover (which would have been numbered 27, if a page number was printed on it) are the excluded pages. The complete book is 28 pages, of which scans of 26 are uploaded here

This Australian Crossdraw Kid is not the only character using this name. There's also the Cross-Draw Kid (with a hyphen) who appeared in Ace's Western Adventures

I was intrigued by the ad on the last page. Would love to read 'The Great Barrier Reef Mystery', with Professor Cartwright in his Wonder Machine. Atom power and international uranium stealers, under the Barrier Reef, through Central Australia, a lost tribe. The mind boggles! Keep 'em coming, Downunder Dan!
