Today in Comics History, June 1, 1951: Manhattan's Polo Grounds* Is Packed Full of Fresh Salmon


from Thrilling True Stories of the Baseball Giants one-shot (Fawcett, 1952), script by Charles Dexter

*My original title, "Giants Stadium is Packed Full of Fresh Salmon," was clear and easier to understand, but I am nothing if not historically accurate.**

**Unless that was an away game, but that's about as much research as I'm inclined to do for a dumb joke.
