Scanned by Ken Quattro and shared with his permission. Pages are shared is two page spreads. There was an 8pg 'summary edition' made as well. It had a black cover which is included as an extra at the end of this file. --- Written by Gabriel Lynn, a staff writer for the Catechetical Guild, this 3-75" x 5.25" 1944 pamphlet was given away to parents as part of a growing anti-comics movement that felt comics were fuelling the rising tide of juvenile delinquency. Comics were also seen as a moral threat to growing children.
Gabriel Lynn also wrote a 1946 booklet, 'THE TEACHER AND THE COMICS' which you can also find on DCM. See the link above.
