Police Comics #62

In "The Cupid's Bow Murder," Dewey's grandfather—now a local celebrity after winning a beard contest—faces a bizarre twist when his prized facial hair becomes a mystery prize, handed out in small pieces to young women as souvenirs. As the man behind the "Mossy Konk Billboard Man" campaign, his growing generosity raises eyebrows, especially when a series of strange incidents begin to unfold. Written, drawn, and inked by Bernard Dibble, this 1947 tale from Police Comics #62 blends whimsy and suspense, with Jack Cole’s striking cover capturing the era’s flair.
