SOLD! POCKET GUIDE TO CHINA - Milton Caniff US military racist comic 1942 1 1

[*paull*]

I have here a very fine copy of the scarce and sought after POCKET GUIDE TO CHINA which contains an 11 page mini-comic by Milton Caniff (creator of Steve Canyon and Terry and the Pirates) titled "HOW TO SPOT A JAP". Published by the U.S. Government Printing Office in 1942 for the War and Navy Departments. Story is focused on determining the difference between Japanese and Chinese when experienced in the field of battle. Controversial and ridden with stereotypes. These were intended for use by servicemen/personnel overseas, not for domestic use.

75 pages total. Pages are in excellent condition. Book seems unread.  This is a seriously nice copy of this book... a good candidate for sending to CGC.  They will encapsulate these books.  Only the very slightest corner and spine wear. No writing, no tears, no loose pages.

 takes it. No probies or HOSers. Please contact me if purchasing outside the U.S.

REDUCED to $95  $120 postpaid to U.S. address

Aw. I'd love to buy that but I spent my "allowance" already. That is really a very neat piece. I'd love to own it. Maybe if it's still around next month. I love stuff like this. Someone else should snag it. Every day, around 350 WWII vets pass away with less than a half million still alive who served in WWII. That generation is fast dwindling. Memorabilia from that war is going to become really desirable.
