Simpsons Comics #5

This is a vintage stamp-themed comic anthology. One story depicts the construction of the Panama Canal in 1904, detailing how massive steam shovels excavated millions of tons of earth that were transported by train to the Pacific side to build breakwaters, with workers facing dangerous conditions including mountain slides in the Culebra Cut. Another story, "Charlemagne and the Black Knight," recounts a medieval legend from the Forest of Brabant in which a lost knight encounters a peasant and is taken to food and drink. The issue also includes instructional content about stamp collecting clubs, their activities, and methods for recruiting new members, along with a contest revealing that Adolf Hitler was the mystery stamp figure from the previous issue.
