Famous Funnies #52

In "Theodora—Her Girlhood," a charming 1938 installment from Famous Funnies #52, a young girl’s memories unfold with quiet humor and gentle whimsy, anchored by the warm, expressive art of Arthur Poinier, who both wrote and drew the story. The issue also features two lighthearted daily strips, including a moment where Jitter’s childhood fears—spooked by a rattlesnake and a playful rattle—lead to a funny scene with toothpaste and a dog cleaning the dinner dishes, all rendered in the distinctive style of Victor Pazmiño on the cover.
