    Cover by Gladys Parker. Stories and art by Gladys Parker and Connie Williams. One of the first female-centric comic strips, by pioneering female artist Gladys Parker, Mopsy combines an Ever Meulen art style with pantomime-style gags and good-girl art. Mopsy's dad suggests she get a job to earn some money, but with clothing, supplies and business-school tuition, he's paying far more than she's earning. Sally is assigned to design a dress for a contest judged by a movie star. Mopsy politely leaves the library to scream after she accidentally drops a book on her foot. Two Hamburgers With; Mopsy; Sally. 36 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
