| Notes | Almost all of the content of this comic consists of newspaper strip reprints, mainly Sunday pages in their original format. The dates of publication of these strips have, in practically all cases, been removed. The usual next issue’s on sale date is missing from the “Let's Get into a Huddle” page in #37, but is liable to have been the 15th of the previous month - i.e. 1937-08-15 - as per usual. |
