Another delightful Swan treasure-many thanks!
   By
There is a (presumably) reprinted "Young King Cole" story in this volume. The "Colonel Longbow" story involves the exact joke with a different ethnic group as in "Funnies Album" 1955.
   By
Other reprints in this volume: "the Cadet with Kit Carter", "Target and the Targeteers", "Edison Bell". I haven't tracked down the originals but I'm going to guess that they are from and issue of "4 Most". The "Tiny Tim & Co." strip seems to be a reprint from "Slick Fun" 9. The "Len the Learner" strip seems to be a reprint from "Topical Funnies" 11.
