Red Ryder Annual

Southdown Press released just one issue of Red Ryder Annual in 1950, a single-shot comic tying into the popular Western newspaper strip. This oversized volume collected some of the best adventures of the cowboy hero, bringing the classic ranch-and-range storytelling to a new format. It stands as a brief but notable artifact of the mid-century comics boom, preserving the work of the strip's original creators for a dedicated audience.
