Here's How America's Cartoonists Help to Sell U.S. Savings Bonds!

A 1949 one-shot from Harvey Comics, this patriotic treasury of one-page strips assembled contributions from prominent newspaper cartoonists of the era, with Ham Fisher—best known for "Joe Palooka"—serving as its primary writer and artist. Commissioned to promote U.S. Savings Bonds, the comic features a who's-who of the funnies page lending their characters to the cause, offering a unique snapshot of post-war cartooning and civic messaging. It matters as a time capsule of the medium’s role in national campaigns, preserving a moment when the funny pages rallied for a financial initiative.
