Interesting and informative on a subject most of us would never think to consider. An American example of how early comics could be so educational for young readers and older ones alike. The Rover was one British example which also endeavoured to educate as well as entertain its readers.

Interesting, if true, that Columbus found people wearing cotton garments in the Caribbean when he arrived there.
How did it get there, I find myself asking?
