“Dance Your Troubles Away”

In "Dance Your Troubles Away," Laurie gets a surprise windfall when her father gives her $300 for a portable radio to take to the lodge—only to be swayed by Wilbur’s suggestion that she could instead buy a TV, complete with his promise to handle the installation. With art by Bill Vigoda and a cover by Bob Montana, this 1950 issue captures the charm and small-town energy of early Archie Comics.
