Dell Publishing's "The Funnies" Part 8





+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+-+
This was to be the final installment of Dell's The Funnies on the Stripper's Guide blog, but I hope you're itchin' for more, because big-hearted Cole Johnson sent me beautiful color photocopies of his issue of The Funnies with lots of different features and neat stuff that, as it says in the sidebar over to your left, I don't want to file away unseen. So I hope you're enjoying this material because we're going to feature it for another week.
I must admit that the series is disappointing for me in the respect that no one appeared with proof that the Dell section did indeed run as an insert in an American paper, or that some of the features continued in newspapers after the section went belly-up. Ah well, such is life!
