Hank Ketchams Complete Dennis The Menace Vol 1 1951-1952 TP

Description

"Appealing to both parents and children, Hank Ketcham's Complete Dennis the Menace began on March 14, 1951 and went on to become the second most popular cartoon kid in the world (after Charlie Brown). The timing was perfect: the post-war generation, at the height of the baby boom, embraced the perennial troublemaker and turned Dennis into a global publishing, merchandising, and multi-media phenomenon, with over 50 million book collections sold, a fondly remembered live-action TV show from 1959-63, a cartoon from 1986-89, theatrical productions, several cartoon specials, two major motion pictures in the '90s, and a full-length animated film in 2002. The strip is still enjoyed by millions of newspaper readers every day. This first volume of Hank Ketcham's Complete Dennis the Menace publishes every single panel strip from 1951 and 1952 in one handsome and thick paperback volume resembling a Big Little Book on growth hormones! 672-page B&W 5 1/2"" x 6 1/4"" "
