Sunday comic strip from 03/08/1947 for "Dick Tracy". Pages like this one featuring Dick Tracy in court, the sadistic Coffyhead tormenting Junior Tracy, an appearance by the glamorous Autumn Hews, the formation of the "Crime Stoppers" and a cliffhanger ending helped make Dick Tracy an icon of American popular culture and one of the most compelling strips of all time. Small tear in top margin. Title photocopy. Signed and dated.
