Some good fun. A couple of really bizarre stories, like the Basil Wolverton one and Korn Kops, And who are "Rojo" and "Suzy"? Good cartoonists, almost animation style. |

I find it hard to beliweve that whoever did this cover wasn't aware of Stan Cross's original! Super famous down under!

Two comments:
(1) This has a 1947 date but there are a number of references to wartime topics (notably rationing), suggesting some of this was old inventory.
(2) A lot of the artwork has visible "paste-up" lines (check the Eugster cartoons but you can see them in other features as well) or some other printing issue. |
