☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Grocery Gig," young Tillie finds herself caught between a mother’s request and a scheduled appointment, leading her to enlist Mac for a simple errand—fetching groceries. When Mac’s memory fails him, his offer to treat Tillie and her mom to dinner turns a routine chore into an unexpected moment of connection. Written and illustrated by Jack Callahan, this 1948 Four Color comic captures everyday charm with a touch of gentle humor, all rendered in crisp, expressive art. The cover by Jack Callahan perfectly frames the lighthearted, domestic scene.
In "The Grocery Gig," Tillie’s mother calls in a rush, needing groceries—just as Tillie’s got an appointment. She phones Mac, who agrees to help but quickly forgets the list, turning the errand into an impromptu dinner invitation instead.
Tillie’s determined to wear a mink coat, so she tries raising minks—until that goes sideways. Undeterred, she and Mac head into the woods to learn the trade from a real trapper, chasing a fur-lined dream with more laughs than fur.
In this lighthearted 1948 tale from Four Color #195, Tillie’s mother heads out of town, leaving her daughter and Bubbles to manage the household. When Mac volunteers to handle the laundry, the girls head off to the movies—setting up a classic mix-up of chores and hijinks.
