Broom-Hilda Growing Old Gracelessly and other Indignities [Growing Old Gracelessly and Other Indignities Another of Those Dad-Gum Broom-Hilda Books] #16252

This 1978 Tempo Books collection gathers a selection of Russell Myers' daily Broom-Hilda newspaper comic strips, featuring the perpetually cranky witch, her buzzard sidekick Gaylord, and the rest of the quirky woodland cast. The volume showcases Myers' signature blend of sharp-tongued humor and absurdist situations, as Broom-Hilda navigates the indignities of aging and everyday life with her trademark grumpy charm. It is one of several paperback compilations from the late 1970s that helped bring the popular syndicated strip to a wider audience.
