Sweet Sixteen #3
☆ Be the first to review + Add to your collection — Join freeAn anthology issue featuring multiple stories and comic strips for girls. The cover highlights Vanessa Brown as the "Sweet Sixteen-er of the Month" and promotes stories including "Cornel Wilde" (about Hollywood actor Cornel Wilde being signed to a six-month contract after impressing studio executives), "Dorothy Dare," "Curtain Call," and "Locker Partner." The issue also includes a text story titled "Project X" by Jane Lawrence about a girl named Binkie searching for a mysterious Mary McCormack to complete her club project, and advertisements such as a Pepsi-Cola comic adventure titled "The Pepsi Cola Cop" featuring characters stranded on an island.
Cornel Wilde embodies the true Renaissance man of Hollywood—a master swordsman who famously handled his own fencing in *Bandit of Sherwood Forest* and even authored a book on the art, a trained physician, and a globetrotting artist and writer whose talents span continents. This biographical feature celebrates the swashbuckling actor's remarkable versatility, from his medical studies to his time in Budapest and his work as a journalist, proving he's a natural fit for any "jack of all trades" role the studio might dream up.
Party Pat earns her nickname by planning unforgettable celebrations, and when Mrs. Baker asks her to throw a surprise party for Gloria, Pat dreams up something special: a "world party" where guests dress in costumes and celebrate traditions from different countries. Between Russian customs, Mexican piñatas, Chinese food, and Hungarian songs, it's a globe-trotting good time that leaves Gloria thrilled and grateful.
