The Friendly Ghost, Casper #49

Even the friendliest ghost has trouble in the kitchen — the cover of this September 1962 Harvey Comics issue catches Casper mid-mishap, wide-eyed as a green frying pan sends a pair of sunny-side-up eggs flying through the air beside a handsome red stove. It's a charmingly relatable moment of domestic chaos rendered in Harvey's warm, rounded style, and the title "Take Me out to the Ball Game" hints that Casper has bigger adventures on his mind than cooking. A delightful slice of early-'60s all-ages fun at a classic twelve-cent price point.
