Broadway Hollywood Blackouts (1954) 2 PR 0.5

INCOMPLETE. Centerfold missing, interrupts art and story.

An offbeat comic presenting short, often risque humor stories in a sort of comics version of vaudeville. Each "sketch" is presented as if it's on a vaudeville stage, complete with footlights. In a story that's a real reflection of its era, a couple goes to the train station just so they can kiss each other in public without causing a scandal. An early comics version of the "Philanderer's Porsche" urban legend. A woman who gets a mink coat from her boyfriend finds a way to trick her husband into thinking he gave it to her - or so she thinks!
