Billy Bellhops, the Zeppo Marx of Richie Rich supporting characters, gets his chance to flash in this one-issue pan. (Other than this, his only appearance seems to be in a Harvey promotional ad.) Billy, whose father is the concierge at a fancy hotel, takes action when the sketchy-looking guest checks in with a ticking suitcase. BB discovers a convoluted plot to make models fat by feeding them delicious lemon candy, thereby sabotaging the tourism industry, in what the cover terms "The wildest story you'll ever read." Little Lotta helps her daredevil Gramps drive to the optometrist for new glasses. Pressure; Billy Bellhops: Grand Opening!; Little Lotta; The Sweet Lemons; Fly By Right; Little Dot; Richie Rich: The Art of Butler Self-Defense; Little Lotta: A Sight For Sore Eyes. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.50.
