Roy Rogers Comics #69

This September 1953 Dell offering features a warm, approachable photo cover of Roy Rogers himself, smiling confidently in his signature fringed western jacket, plaid shirt, red neckerchief, and cowboy hat — leaning forward as if ready for whatever the frontier throws his way. Fifty-two pages of western adventure await inside, with Gaylord Du Bois's writing and Al Micale's artwork bringing stories like "Races Murder in Papoose Pass" to life. A charming snapshot of early '50s cowboy comics at their most personable.
