When a father reluctantly buys a whole vendor's stock of balloons for his son, the sudden lift into the sky sends both their lives into a chaotic spin—leaving the boy in a furious tantrum below. The cover by Al Capp captures the moment with playful flair, making this a standout slice of early 1930s cartoon energy.
