Henry Aldrich

Based on the popular radio show and film series, Dell’s Henry Aldrich ran for 22 issues from 1950 to 1954, chronicling the lighthearted, all-American misadventures of its titular teenager. The series was most frequently written by Gaylord Du Bois and drawn by Bill Williams, who brought a clean, wholesome energy to Henry’s high school hijinks and small-town scrapes. It stands as a charming slice of early 1950s pop culture, capturing the era’s idealized teen life for a generation of young readers.
