Here’s a very cool tourist giveaway comic book I found a short while ago. It was created, printed and published in Canada by G.W. Hogarth and the Division of Publicity, Department of Travel and Publicity, in authority with Baptist Johnston, Printer to the Queen’s Most Excellent Majesty (no pressure) Toronto, Ontario. There is no mention of artist although there could be a signature hiding in a panel somewhere and my guess is it was published circa 1952. If anyone has any additional information, please be sure to let me know.
Reproduced below is the entire comic book of Our Vacation in Ontario, cover to cover.
I found this in perfect condition in some old comics. Mine is stamped Barr’s Motel Barrie Ontario
Oh man, you have Wonderful things here! Thanks! 🙂
My favourite part is the family visiting the paper mills of Espanola, which when operating create the greatest stench known to man. I felt like I was being mustard gassed when I was there (no offense to any veterans of Ypres who might be reading).
