    $28.00

    B&W British Edition published by L. Miller & Son. Painted cover art by Norman Saunders. Stories and art by Clem Weisbecker and Robert Butts. A "Boys' Life"-style comic promoting hunting, fishing and other outdoors activities for 1950s boys. What makes it "a new kind of comic book" (as the cover says) is that the stories are interrupted periodically with tips on gun safety, proper fishing techniques, etc. In California, Bob learns of a new style of fishing - underwater spear fishing, which the story refers to as "goggle-fishing." Bob insists on going along when his father is hired to collect a Kodiak bear specimen for the Field Museum, but the bear isn't going without a fight. Plus text articles on fly tying and the striped bass. The Striped Bass; Fishing in Another World; Captain Kid: The Wild Beast; Fly Tying. 24 pages, B&W.
