☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeIn "The Lure of Gold," Captain Tootsie and his young companions stage a daring watch at the Egyptian exhibit, setting a trap for a gang of museum burglars. With a clever disguise as a mummy, Captain Tootsie outwits the thieves in a suspenseful showdown. Written and illustrated by C. C. Beck, with inks by Pete Costanza, this 1947 adventure blends mystery and humor in a classic Fawcett tale.
In this lighthearted 1947 western humor tale from *Hopalong Cassidy #8*, Jo’s sharp-shooting friend struggles to hit a moving bird—so Pattie gives him the classic advice: "Lead the target." But when he tries again, the bird’s still, and his shot goes wide. The joke lands with a wink, playing on the old adage with a twist only a frontier prankster could deliver.
