Funny Folks #18

This February–March 1949 DC humor title delivers a wonderfully absurd winter scene, with Nutsy Squirrel riding a giraffe like a sled down a snowy hill, clutching a lit firecracker and looking absolutely delighted about the whole chaotic situation. Rube Grossman's cartooning brings a loose, energetic charm to the snowy landscape, with a snow-dusted tree adding to the seasonal setting. At 52 pages for just ten cents, this issue is a cheerful snapshot of postwar funny-animal comics at their most gleefully silly.
