Better Little Book #1445 Smilin' Jack & the Escape From Death Rock 1943 Whitman

Description: Item: the Better Little Book #1445: Smilin' Jack and the Escape from Death Rock Publisher: Whitman Publishing Co Cover Date: 1943 What's the deal with Little Books: The Big Little Books (later becoming Better Little Books), first published in 1932 by the Whitman Publishing Company, were small, compact books designed with a captioned illustration opposite each page of text. Other publishers, notably Saalfield, adopted this format after Whitman achieved success with its early titles. A Big Little Book was typically 3⅝″ wide and 4½″ high (though these measurements vary), with 212 to 432 pages making an approximate thickness of 1½″. The interior book design usually displayed full-page black-and-white illustrations on the right side, facing the pages of text on the left. Stories were often related to radio programs (The Shadow), comic strips (The Gumps), children's books (Uncle Wiggily), novels (John Carter of Mars), and movies (Bambi). Later books of the series had interior color illustrations. Inventory Code: 0-DIG Terms & Conditions Shipping Comics are sent in a bubble mailer sandwiched between two thick slabs of cardboard to prevent damage. If your purchases do not fit in a bubble mailer, they will be mailed inside a securely packed cardboard box, packed tightly to avoid any shifting en route. I want your comics to arrive in the advertised condition just as much as you do. Graphic novels, trade paperbacks (TPBs), and hardcovers count as multiple comics when factoring shipping costs. TPBs count as the number of comics they reprint. Other notations may be found in the listing regarding how many comics they will count as. I will gladly combine shipping for any items paid for together on the same invoice. Items paid for on multiple invoices will not qualify for the combined shipping discount. If the shipping does not look like it is combining correctly, please check to ensure that the shipping methods for all of the items are set to the same method prior to checkout. Domestic Shipping Each additional regular-sized comic only costs to mail (trade paperbacks are counted as the number of issues they collect - graphic novels and hardcovers count as multiple comics when factoring shipping).
