    Volume 1 - 1st printing. Story, art and cover by Chic Young, plus a foreword by J.V. Connolly. A collection of 100 Blondie comic strips from 1938 - 1944.

Also featuring an introduction by J.V. Connolly, president of King Features Syndicate. Hardcover (with Dust Jacket), 6-in. x 7 1/2-in., 124 pages, B&W. Cover price $1.00.
