Thanks, espe...Sorry for the delayed response, Unk. Thanks, especially for the info on photo #44 (the two girls sitting on the floor with a pile of comics). I'd never heard of THE LITTLE PEOPLE.<br /><br />Pic #11: the cover is as plain as day, but I somehow neglected to include the information. <br /><br />As for photo #21 (the three kids in the poorly lit store), it's impossible to say with absolute certainty that it's NEW FUNNIES #161 (July 1950) since only the logo is visible, and they used the same images along the left side for a number of issues. The date on the cover is short, looking like either June or July, certainly not August, and anyways the background colour is dark, whereas the August issue is a bright yellow. However, as the other comics are dated July and August, it's a safe bet that it's the July issue.<br /><br />I've altered the captions accordingly.Richard Belandhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09551263003857476982noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674337471812945230.post-25009971445513825382015-05-13T16:10:15.068-04:002015-05-13T16:10:15.068-04:00Here are some cover IDs: photo 11 has Walt Disney&...Here are some cover IDs: photo 11 has Walt Disney's Comics & Stories #27 (December 1942); 21 has New Funnies #161 (July 1950); 44 has The Little People Four Color #692 (March 1956); 71, the Little Beaver is really #3, having graduated from the Four Color series.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06163460918128018581noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674337471812945230.post-84996652436094402572013-11-11T13:40:06.933-05:002013-11-11T13:40:06.933-05:00That is wonderful.

It means a great deal to see these photos and be able to prove visually, that girls have always read comics in close-to-equal numbers as boys.<br />If you can find the sources, that info would be great, but I'm still glad to have seen themHope L Nicholsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03158687299997836205noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674337471812945230.post-367178987062447532011-07-21T13:57:24.198-04:002011-07-21T13:57:24.198-04:00great stuff, like a certain history of comics! tha...great stuff, like a certain history of comics! thank you for collecting (and sources would be great)lignahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992502452254261320noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7674337471812945230.post-77431716576050362272011-07-21T13:14:18.375-04:002011-07-21T13:14:18.375-04:00I love these images.
