Four Color #209

This 1949 Dell issue captures Harold Teen in a charmingly relatable moment — caught between two affections, he's shown writing at a desk while framed photos on either side tell the whole story: one inscribed "To Gramps all my Love Bunny" and another "To Harold all my Love Lana," with a bearded Gramps peering over his shoulder. Carl Ed's clean, expressive linework gives the scene a warm comedic energy that made this newspaper strip adaptation a natural fit for the funny pages crowd. It's a delightful snapshot of small-town teen life with just enough romantic entanglement to keep things lively.
