Screwball #1
Screwball is a humor anthology featuring brief, punchline-driven gags and jokes. The visible content includes "Poof Positive!" about moisturized gags, "Toot Toot" concerning tuba lessons affecting romantic interest, "Gypsy Rose Whee!" a joke about an actress's lack of appearances, "Burp!" about a beer-drinking contest, a gag set at a nudist camp about swimming clothed, and "Butterfingers!" depicting a newlywed encountering a demonic figure. The comic relies on visual humor and wordplay typical of 1940s comedy comics.
