Chester Cheer and Gregory the Green Deer in "A Circus Christmas"

Chester Cheer and Gregory the Green Deer star in this single 1954 comic from W. T. Grant, a holiday giveaway that blends circus antics with Christmas cheer. Produced by the Jason Comic Art Studio, it’s a charming, ephemeral piece of mid-century promotional publishing—a snapshot of how department stores once used original comics to delight young shoppers.
