Description

This lot features six vintage Hopalong Cassidy comic books published by Fawcett Publications, starring William Boyd. These ten-cent comic books feature various issue numbers and dates, including December 1952, with Western-themed cover blurbs such as “AMERICA’S FAVORITE COWBOY” and “JAM-PACKED WITH RIP-SNORTIN’ WESTERN ADVENTURES!”. Also included are six vintage magazine advertising pages from the 1950s, promoting classic American brands such as DAISY (featuring Red Ryder BB guns, priced around $7.00), SCHWINN-BUILT BICYCLE, and ARMEE bicycles. These advertisements often highlight “FREE!” offers, “GIVEN, GIVEN, GIVEN” premiums, and “MAIL COUPON TODAY!” calls to action. All items are made of paper.
