Archie's Joke Book Magazine #164

Summer hijinks are in full swing on this 1971 beach-day cover, where two guys are gleefully skimboarding across the surf — using pizzas as their boards — while a cook at a beachside oven and several girls in swimsuits react to the absurd scene. The cover gag, spelled out in speech bubbles, reveals that the boys aren't admiring the cook's pizzas for eating — they've repurposed them as "groovy skimboards," much to everyone's amusement. With Dan DeCarlo's breezy, sun-soaked cover art setting the tone, Archie's Joke Book Magazine #164 delivers exactly the kind of lighthearted, laugh-out-loud humor the series does so well.
