Casper the Friendly Ghost #44

Harvey Comics' lovable ghost gets a wonderfully unexpected surprise on the cover of this 1956 issue — Casper holds a paper bag of peanuts, only to discover that tiny frogs are leaping out of it in every direction, leaving him with a hilariously bewildered expression. It's a charming, lighthearted image that captures everything endearing about Paramount Pictures' famous star: even the simplest snack can turn into an adventure when you're Casper. At just a dime, this issue — featuring the story "Bedtime Troubles" — is a warm slice of mid-1950s all-ages comics fun.
