Little Max Comics #18

Max grips the scale's dial with wide-eyed concern — those needle readings clearly have both boy and hound alarmed. Ham Fisher's signature adds a personal touch to this delightfully lighthearted cover that lives up to the title's promise of a "Special Magazine for Little Folks.
