Stories, art and cover by Harry Haenigsen. One of the first comics to focus on the then-new concept of the teenager. Bobby-soxer Penny loves boys and music and speaks her own hip lingo with her friends. Her long-suffering parents dont understand any of it, but readers found her one of their own. One panel shows a character in lingerie, very risque for a comic of the time. Also featuring a biography of Penny cartoonist Harry Haenigsen. Pennys Pop!; Penny and Our Bill. 32 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
