“Case of the Valiant Dog”

In "Case of the Valiant Dog," a 1946 Sensation Comics issue, a group of kids armed with shiny new club badges stumbles upon a mystery when a stolen rattle and a tin cup full of trinkets lead them to an organ-grinder and his mischievous monkey. When one of their badges turns up at a high-society theft, the kids don their crime-fighting costumes and track the gang to their hidden lair—led by a clever monkey and a surprising twist. Frank Harry handles both pencils and inks for the story, while Harry Peter provides the cover.
