Hedy of Hollywood

Hedy of Hollywood, a lighthearted comedy series from Horwitz Publications, ran for 22 issues beginning in 1950. Centered on the misadventures of a young woman navigating the glamour and gags of the film industry, the strip was a cheerful staple of Australian newsstands. Though creator credits are sparse, the series endures as a charming snapshot of mid-century pop culture and the enduring appeal of the small-town girl in the big city.
