Tim Tyler's Adventures #24

In Tim Tyler's Adventures #24, young Tim sets out to defend Crisp’s land from greedy developers Stark and Trimble, who claim the property holds valuable oil. With clever thinking and a keen eye, Tim uncovers the truth: the oil seeping from the ground actually comes from a long-lost barge buried in the river. Penciled by Keith Chatto, Lyman Young, and Bob Young, with inks by Chatto, Young, and Young, and a cover by Keith Chatto, this 12-cent adventure blends mystery and frontier justice in a story that’s as grounded in real-world sleuthing as it is in classic pulp thrills.
