Dennis the Menace Pocket Full of Fun comic books issue 17

Stories and art by Fred Toole and Al Wiseman. Pocket Full of Fun was the first of the Dennis digest collections, featuring material from the comic book series and, occasionally, Hank Ketcham's Sunday newspaper strip. Dennis meets his weird new neighbor Margaret, who fails to impress him with her intellect, but makes an impact with her right hook. This reprints "Dennis and the Little Lady," the first appearance of Dennis's pal Margaret (given blond hair instead of red in this story). Dennis learns about superstitions, including his own. Dennis decides it is Ruff's birthday, and he needs a party.
