Four Color #354

A cozy campfire moment with Raggedy Ann and Andy makes for a thoroughly charming cover on this 1951 Dell offering. Ann grins with delight as she toasts a marshmallow over a small fire, while Andy looks on — and their little ragdoll companion has tumbled backward into the marshmallow box, sending the sugary treats flying. Cover art by Dan Gormley captures all the warmth and gentle slapstick that made these beloved rag-doll characters so endearing to young readers of the era.
