Patsy and Hedy #32

A museum visit turns into a comedy of manners on Morris Weiss's delightful cover for this December 1954 Atlas gem. A dark-haired young woman in a striking green dress and wildly stacked hat clutches her Museum of Art guide book, blissfully unaware that the red-headed girl and her companion nearby are whispering — rather unkindly — that her hat is the silliest they've ever seen (though, they agree, her face gives it stiff competition). With Al Jaffee handling the interior writing and art, this issue of Patsy and Hedy promises the same sharp, warm humor that made teen-comedy comics such a joy in 1954.
