It was a low-cost experiment; in fact,the readers (kids) had to cut out and assemble the book themselves from the newspaper pages. They contained a selection of relatively obscure, largely in-house comic strips of surprisingly high quality. The series lasted about two years before war-time paper shortages claimed another casualty.

The four weekly section in this book are merely a sampler of what could be a large and exciting collection; some of the features are continuing stories, but these are not sequential. These are, frankly, just a taste..... but a lot of fun!
