Smell Swell Perfume
1 pp · anthropomorphic-funny animals

When a smooth-talking character tries to con Smart Alec into buying a dubious hair tonic by repeatedly suggesting he's going bald, Alec decides to turn the tables and test the product himself—leading to a hilarious mix-up involving a dance hall brawl and a thoroughly confused Officer Clancy. It's a classic prank-gone-wrong tale that proves sometimes the best joke is on the joker.

Help the Poor
2 pp · humor

In this 1944 Jest Comics story featuring Foxy Grandpa, a beggar's run-in with the law over asking for spare change takes an unexpected turn when a judge decides to teach him a lesson about work and character. Through a series of vaudeville-style exchanges and a detour into a historical lesson about John Bunyan, the story plays with questions of poverty, idleness, and what it really means to help those in need. It's a warmly humorous take on Depression-era attitudes toward the down-and-out, wrapped in the fast-paced gag sensibility that made these humor comics such a hoot.

Bing CrosbyWinston ChurchillHenry FordTheodore Roosevelt

Winston Churchill unwinds from the pressures of state with oils and brushes, while Bing Crosby pursues his passion for championship horses, Henry Ford collects and reproduces American pioneer artifacts, and Theodore Roosevelt reflects on his expeditions hunting big game across Africa and Asia. "Hobbies" offers a glimpse into how four remarkable men found their own ways to relax and pursue their personal interests away from the spotlight.
