How to Torture Your Wife

A single, unusual 1948 publication from The John C. Winston Company, How to Torture Your Wife is a one-shot comic built around the signature single-panel cartoons of Harold Tucker Webster. Known for his long-running newspaper strip "The Timid Soul," Webster here collects his domestic gags into a book-length format, offering a lighthearted (if dated) look at mid-century marital humor. It stands as a curious artifact of a major syndicated cartoonist's work being repackaged for the comic book market.
