    Radio Patrol (1988 King Features) 1-1ST

    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Stories by Eddie Sullivan. Art and cover by Charles Schmidt. King Features, the comic strip syndicate, reprints this well-regarded early crime strip from the 1930s, when radio-linked patrol cars were still a new idea. A Boston-set response to Dick Tracy, it was notable for featuring a policewoman as one of the central characters. This special issue includes two complete episodes from the strip during its Depression-era heyday. Sergeant Pat, his partner Sam, and policewoman Molly Day battle crime in downtown Boston. Softcover, 8 1/2-in. x 11-in., 112 pages, B&W. Cover price $8.95.
