“Amazing Facts about "Sports"”

"Amazing Facts about 'Sports'" in Comic Cavalcade #49 (1952) delivers a lighthearted, clever twist on a classic setup, with Rube Grossman handling both the interior art and cover in his signature style. When Cheesy sells Custer a proverb book with grand promises, the results are anything but wise—leading to a funny, self-aware misadventure that plays with the idea of life lessons gone awry.
