Japhet Holiday Book

A short-lived but fondly remembered British newspaper comic, Japhet Holiday Book ran for five issues between 1936 and 1940 from the News Chronicle. The series collected the adventures of its titular character, a jaunty globe-trotter, in a format that offered a full, self-contained story per issue. While the creator remains uncredited in available records, the book stands as a charming artifact of pre-war British comics, capturing the era's taste for lighthearted, exotic escapism.
