Cover by Ernie Bushmiller. Stories and art by Ernie Bushmiller and Bernard Dibble. The comic-strip adventures of aspiring model Fritzi Ritz and her boyfriend, the bumbling Phil Fumble. Fritzi was later known as "Aunt Fritzi" in the Nancy comic strip. A man-on-the-street radio interview causes conflict for Phil and Fritzi. Fritzi spies a good-looking, pipe-smoking guest at the neighboring hotel, in a strip that includes some 1940s comic-strip "good girl" art. In a multi-page story by "Fritzi" ghost artist Bernard Dibble, Mr. Biltybux thinks he's too old. But Bombo lifts his spirits by taking him dancing, where the gals ask if they want to "grab a wing" and "lay some leather." Fritzi Ritz; El Bombo. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
