Wayne Boring Superman Daily 7-7-1949

There are advantages to buying on eBay. I made an offer for this strip which was accepted and used eBay Bucks to knock of 10%. After 10 years on eBay, something good had to happen!

A fun daily from 1949 by Wayne Boring. This is from Episode 60 entitled Superman, Male Escort that ran in strip 3279-3320 from June 27, 1949 to August 13, 1949. The story started when Eddie King, a male escort (can you believe that in 1949???), gets a black eye while attempting to defend Clark Kent from a bully. As he will be unable to work, which he needs to raise money for his wedding, Eddie suggests Superman take his place. The announcement had been made that Superman would be available to escort some lucky ladies out for a date. Little did he know that every woman in Metropolis would turn up for the opportunity. Soon a mob of women appears, waiting for their chance to go out with Superman. Hot stuff!
