From Kid Eternity #53 (1948)

I've learned a lot from this blog (in addition to having a ton of fun), like how for regulatory reasons Golden Age comics had this kind of text content. I'm curious, did kids read it? Or just skip past it to the comics?
Hard to say. Most of them were, at best, mediocre and tepid, and barely worth the effort.
Then again, I read every word of the "modern" version of text pieces, letters pages and bullpen Bulletins," when I was a youth...
