Appie Happie #[nn]

From the Dutch publisher Perscombinatie in 1971 comes this issue of *Appie Happie*, featuring the story "Afspraak is afspraak" ("A Deal is a Deal") — a title that hints at the kind of good-natured promise-keeping adventures the series was known for. The artwork is handled by Dik Bruynesteyn, whose pen-and-ink work brings the characters to life with a lively, readable charm. A fun piece of Dutch comics history from the early seventies.
