Number 1506: Dagwood no drag

Blondie, the long-running comic strip, here seen in a dozen examples of Sunday pages from 1940, was a paper sitcom. Well-meaning but slightly dopey husband Dagwood played comedic foil for spouse, Blondie, who was much smarter than him. The gags came fast in this well-drawn and funny comic strip.

I scanned these from the reprints in Feature Book #29, a comic published by David McKay Co. in 1941. There are 64 Sunday paqes from 1939 and 1940, which works out to 16 months of Sundays. And all for 10¢! As a housewife keeping track of a household budget even Blondie would think that was a bargain.
