For Laughing Out Loud #24

Michael Berry's cover sets the playful tone perfectly: a flustered sign painter has his hat sent flying by the high-kicking leg of the glamorous showgirl figure he's painting on a carnival billboard advertising "50 Girls 50." Dell's September 1962 humor digest packs in over 75 cartoons and hundreds of jokes, with written contributions from Parke Cummings, John Bailey, Robert Fontaine, Loyd Rosenfield, and others — a genuinely fun grab-bag of mid-century comic wit.
