“The Joe Palooka Story: Joe as a Boy”

In "The Joe Palooka Story: Joe as a Boy," the beloved boxing legend is spotlighted in a nostalgic flashback that traces his youth, set against the backdrop of a high-stakes Yale vs Georgia football game and a series of lighthearted mishaps. From mistaken identities to the curious count of dimples on a golf ball, the story captures Joe’s early days with charm and humor, all rendered in the distinctive style of Ham Fisher, who both penciled and inked the cover.
