Little Max Comics #30

Part of Harvey's beloved Joe Palooka universe, this August 1954 issue puts the pint-sized Little Max front and center in a wonderfully goofy golf-course predicament — the red-haired kid is perched on stilts in a water hazard, butterfly net in hand, trying to scoop up a golf ball that's just been walloped his way by an oblivious golfer in the background. The sunny yellow cover and bright, bouncy art capture everything charming about Harvey's humor comics of 1954, delivering a sight gag that's equal parts clever and absurd.
