Adventures in Wonderland #5

This Special Christmas Issue of *Adventures in Wonderland* (No. 5, published by Lev Gleason) captures a genuinely charming holiday moment: two children press close to a frost-rimmed window, gazing in wide-eyed delight as Santa Claus waves from his sleigh, reindeer in tow against a starry night sky, with a snow-dusted village below and a decorated Christmas tree glowing warmly beside them. The cover image alone radiates the cozy wonder that made 1956 holiday comics such a treat, and at just ten cents it was an inviting package for young readers. "Elmo's First Christmas" promises exactly the kind of warm seasonal storytelling that fits this enchanting scene perfectly.
