I'm pretty sure no child ever bought a copy of this with their own dime. Let's see, History of the Red Cross or Captain America punching out Hitler?

It'd be pretty awesome if it was the Red Cross kicking Hitler's can.

It has a surprise ending.

Interesting that "Red Cross story" merits a label note. I guess there must be Red Cross collectors out there. Who knew?

I need to own one of these back yard pedigree books. Most of them are in wonderful condition and with white pages.

From GCD: Biography of Bill Knudsen, Director Office of Production Management for President Roosevelt

 

He's actually a very important individual to the success of US wartime production. He served for $1 a year and was crucial in identifying critical dependencies necessary to quickly convert from civilian to military hardware. You can read about him (and US war production) in the book below where it points out that US war output swelled so quickly that by the end of 1944, almost a year before the end of the war, it was already able to start a significant ramp down of production.
