Four Color #2

Harold Teen heads to the malt shop in this cheerful 1942 Dell entry, with the daydreaming teen seated at a checkered-tablecloth counter while a grinning older fellow leans in beside him — and a thought bubble reveals a stylish young woman on Harold's mind. A inset panel in the corner shows another character enthusiastically chomping away, and the cover's lively call to "Get Hep with a Razzberry Bounce!" perfectly captures the breezy small-town teen humor Carl Ed brought to the strip. All 68 pages are in full color, making this a genuinely fun snapshot of early-'40s comic book charm.
