A Date with Judy #23

A Date with Judy #23 brings DC's radio-famous teen heroine to the softball diamond in this cheerful 1951 outing, with cover art by Graham Place. The cover captures a lively girls' softball game in progress — Judy steps up to bat in a red-striped shirt while teammates field and throw behind her, all as a red-haired boy named Oogie leans skeptically against the fence, his "Hmmmm — I'm sure!" reaction promising plenty of good-natured comedy ahead. At 52 big pages for a dime, this issue delivers a generous helping of the lighthearted teen humor that made Judy a coast-to-coast favorite.
