    Stories and art by Otto Binder, Frank Bolle, Kurt Schaffenberger, Jack Binder, Pete Costanza and Howard Boughner. Fawcett's most popular heroes, the original Captain Marvel (Shazam) and family, in solo and shared adventures. When a businessman is threatened with a hostile takeover, The Marvel Family offers to help him run his business, but that's not as easy as it sounds. After Freckles is kidnapped by gangsters, Mary Marvel disguises herself as a boy and joins the gang to find her, riding on the running boards of an old car at high speeds. Springfoot the Clown performs to inspire disabled children, having an artificial leg himself, but when he's abducted by crooks, Captain Marvel, Jr. wonders why the clown has turned to crime. Plus a plethora of vintage comics-format ads, including a hair-cream ad featuring detective Sam Spade. The Marvel Family Goes Into Business; Boxcar Benny; Lazy Lee; Headline Harry: Below Sea Level; Freshman Freddy; Tightwad Tad; The Marvel Family Puzzle Page; Mary Marvel: The Trap; Capt. Marvel Jr.: The Clown of Crime; The Magic Maker; Death Stalks the Hunters; Captain Marvel: The Three Dooms. 48 pages, Full Color. Cover price $0.10.
