This page is divided into 9 sections. 8 of them are "BlueBolts and Nuts" (the title panel and 7 cartoons). The ninth block has a very small ad for "Western Star Pictures" and a slightly larger public service announcement urging "Boys and Girls of America" to purchase United States Defense Stamps. |
|
Synopsis | A facsimile of a letter from Henry Morgenthau Jr., U.S. Secretary of the Treasury, urging boys and girls to purchase Defense Stamps to help the war effort. |
Notes | This public service advertisement appeared in numerous comic books from different publishers around the same time.
