Rusty Comics #15

The cover of Rusty Comics #15 promises exactly what the masthead delivers — "America's Funniest Family!" — with a chaotic outdoor picnic scene featuring a glamorous redheaded woman, a grinning fellow in a bold checkered jacket, and two small children, all while an angry bull charges in from behind, apparently provoked by a waving red apron. The spread blanket loaded with roast turkey, cake, fruit, and beverages makes the impending stampede all the more delightfully ill-timed. A warm slice of 1947 humor comics at its most cheerfully unhinged.
