Beautiful Harry Anderson art on the last story. Funny, the caption in the last panel on our page 33 has been altered. It suggests that the life of a Bowery derelict is rosy compared to that of a criminal, "the loneliest man on earth." The text reads, "The Bowery WANDERER, IN COMPARISON, IS wealthy and favored by fortune!"

The words I've capitalized have been re-lettered. I have a hunch they used to read, "The Bowery BUM" and the editor decided at the last moment to soften it.
