Four Color #96

In this 1946 Four Color comic, Junior takes on his first real business venture by setting up a bike-parking service with his friend Buck. When a truck deliberately destroys the racks on his first day, Junior faces a tough challenge—until Deafy Sweetfellow offers him a tempting deal to supply replacement bikes at low prices. Written, drawn, and inked by Chester Gould, this slice-of-life tale captures the hustle and moral dilemmas of a young entrepreneur, all rendered in the crisp, expressive style of the era. The cover by Western Publishing Production Shop adds a touch of period charm to this early post-war story.
