Funny Picture Stories v1 #03; January 1937; 68 pages-JVJ-narfstar-builderboy (now with an ifc)

A nearly complete paper scan of a JVJ treasure, scanning by narfstar, editing by builderboy. JVJ's copy was missing the cover. I have put in a low-rez cover image from GCD, and lack the ifc.

Updated to include an additional larger front cover from HA and a fill for the missing ifc from Funny Pages v1 #7, confirmed from an Internet ad.

A beautiful book with some humor, boxing, adventuring...good anthology mix-up.
