I loved the material, but I wish the publishers had taken some care in reproducing the strips. Most look as if they are poor color copies of old Sunday papers. A very few appear to have been re-colored acceptably, but most are pretty darn sloppy.

Grew up reading this series. Now I have a permanent copy of my own. Good price and great product for comics junkies.

I purchased this volume as a gift for my Dad who was a big fan of L'il Abner in the 50's and 60's. Dad always liked Daisy Mae! I figured Dad who is a widower could use a little Daisy Mae in his life again. Of course I couldn't resist sitting down and reading the four volumes I bought for him- I did read L'il Abner when I was a kid in the 60's but a lot of it was way over my head back then. Now I can see it through adult eyes and I understand the satire and the subtle shades of humor far better then ever! It's been a fun and interesting meander down Memory Lane! Highly recommended for those who enjoy pure slapstick humor and outrageous satire!

This is the final volume in the series of reprints of Sunday Li'l Abner strips. They chose to focus on the years when Frank Frazzetta was drawing the majority of the Sunday strips. I wish they would have printed the entire run of the series, but that's their decision. Anyway, Li'l Abner was a great comic strip for most of it's run, and this time period was no exception. Anyone with an interest in old time comic strips should get this book.
