About the series
From 1949 to 1952, Dell Comics brought radio and film ventriloquist Edgar Bergen's wisecracking dummy to the printed page in Charlie McCarthy, a nine-issue series. Best known for the lively, cartoonish artwork of Harvey Eisenberg, the comic captured the smart-aleck charm of the character in all-ages adventures. A playful piece of mid-century pop culture, it stands as a cheerful snapshot of a pre-television comedy icon.
