Tessie the Typist Comics #16

Tessie is literally walking on air in this charming 1948 Marvel humor comic, clutching a signed photo to her heart as little hearts float around her head — while three bundled-up onlookers on the ground below quip, "She hasn't come down to earth since last July!" The cover's light, breezy comedy perfectly captures the lovestruck daydream that defined Tessie's cheerful world. A delightful snapshot of postwar funny-book charm for a dime.
