This anthology issue contains "Blintze in Blues," a story by Brown and Gantz about a seasick sailor named Sam Hanson on an office fishing party, and "Salty Sam's Sea Gull," which follows Sam's misadventures aboard the S.S. Waterlogged where he encounters a large sea creature that disrupts the voyage. Both stories center on comedic maritime mishaps and slapstick humor involving water-based scenarios.

Blintze Blues
8 pp · Children

A vegetarian creature with an insatiable appetite for blintzes disrupts the plans of everyone around it—from a lovesick pair seeking passage home, to a nervous passenger on a luxury liner, to a pair of amateur aviators who can't believe what they're seeing. When the cargo ship carrying this peculiar passenger heads toward Brooklyn with promises of unlimited cheese-filled blintzes, chaos follows in its wake, touching down on everyone in its path.

Home Sweet Home
10 pp · Children

Davy Jones, a harried diner owner, dreams of retiring to the peaceful countryside—until a chaotic mob of customers and an unexpected partnership offer turn his simple wish into a wild adventure. When Jones and his new business partners set sail with a cargo of zanymulch aboard a borrowed submarine, they discover that getting home to the U.S.A. is far more complicated than they bargained for. With eccentric allies and curious obstacles in their way, this zany crew's journey becomes anything but the quiet escape Jones was hoping for.

Hats n' Harpoons!
3 pp · Humor

Rowline Tillie's fed up with sailors saying she's too tough for a woman, so when a movie reporter claims the right hat is the secret to femininity, she orders one by mail to prove them wrong. When the fancy new hat arrives, it causes quite the stir among the crew—though not exactly in the way Tillie expected. This 1952 humor tale from Beanbags finds Salty Sal and Rowline Tillie tangling over matters of fashion and romance in "Hats n' Harpoons!"
