St. John presents the earliest issues of what eventually became Harvey's long-running series about the friendliest of ghosts. This issue features the second-ever comics appearances of Casper and Baby Huey. Casper just want to make friends, but scares not only the birds out of the trees but the trees themselves, setting the pace for his long existence in comics. Casper goes underwater and meets Goldie the goldfish, who doesn't realize he's a ghost. He goes to the underwater carnival, but when his fishy friends are caught in a net, his ghostly nature comes in handy. The Fox tries to figure out how to eat Baby Huey, who is as indestructible as he is large. Casper the Friendly Ghost; The Ghostly Boarding House; The Cat and the Crow; The Little Princess; Baby Huey. 36 pages, full color.
Cover price $0.10.
