BID PER WHAT YOU SEE IN THE PHOTO, NOT THE AI GENERATED TITLES AND DESCRIPTIONS! Walter Lantz New Funnies Issue 115 September 1946 Dell Comic Book
This is a vintage Golden Age comic book titled Walter Lantz New Funnies, issue number 115, published by Dell Publishing Co. in September 1946. The front cover features the Dell logo, the 10-cent original cover price, and the Walter Lantz signature logo. The main cover illustration depicts Woody Woodpecker perched on a red ladder, pouring syrup onto a large stack of pancakes being carried by Andy Panda. The bottom border of the cover includes character headshots for Andy Panda, Oswald (the Lucky Rabbit), Charlie Chicken, and Homer Pigeon. The interior contains comic strips featuring these and other Walter Lantz characters. The publication is a standard American comic book format from the mid-1940s.
Condition report:
The comic is in fair to good condition with significant signs of age and wear. Most notably, there is substantial paper loss and tearing at the bottom right corner, which has removed a portion of the Homer Pigeon character graphic. There is general edge wear and chipping along the top and bottom edges, including a small crease at the top left corner. The spine shows several horizontal stress lines with associated color breaks. The cover remains attached, although the integrity is compromised at the bottom right corner. The newsprint displays age-appropriate yellowing.
