Funny Folks #7

This April–May 1947 DC humor anthology serves up a wonderfully chaotic scene courtesy of cover artist Otto Feuer: a harried bird-like character in a straw hat is sprinting at full tilt, pulling a rickshaw labeled "RICKSHA 20¢/5¢" while a round-faced passenger holds up a ticking stopwatch and dollar signs fly through the air — the meter reading "00 00" suggesting the fare is already getting away from everyone involved. Two more cartoon critters peek in from the upper corners, adding to the cheerful mayhem. With interior work from the team of Woody Gelman, Rube Grossman, and Irving Dressler, Funny Folks #7 promises the kind of lighthearted, gag-filled fun that made DC's humor titles a delightful counterpart to their superhero line.
