About the series
A single-issue promotional comic from 1949, Our United States was published by the J. C. Penney Company as a free giveaway celebrating American history and commerce. The issue presents a patriotic, illustrated tour of the nation's industries and landmarks, reflecting mid-century corporate publishing's role in shaping public education and brand identity. While it lacks a lengthy run or famous creators, it stands as a curious artifact of retail-driven comics and postwar Americana.
