Buzzy #48

DC's cheerful teen humor title delivers a wonderfully relatable slice of early-1950s life with this issue of Buzzy. The cover captures a perfectly timed comedy moment: a red-dressed girl calls out "Hold it, Buzzy! The picture's fine now!" while Buzzy himself perches awkwardly atop the family television set — apparently the human antenna — his face grinning back from the screen below. It's the kind of warmly funny, everyday situation that made Buzzy a go-to read for teens and families in 1953.
