Tessie the Typist Comics #23

Marvel's long-running humor series delivers another winning gag in this 1949 entry, with Tessie herself front and center on the golf course, hands on hips and finger wagging as she scolds a hapless Mr. Brown — who has taken "keeping your eye on the ball" so literally that his face is practically pressed against the tee. Morris Weiss brings the comedic timing to life with expressive linework that makes the punchline land the moment your eyes hit the cover. A warm slice of postwar funny-book charm at its lightest and most delightful.
