I don't recall all the strips in the 1st issue. I had the 1st 4 or 5 issues 
and don't recall what was in which issue but I do recall seeing many years 
later what those issues were then worth and being exasperated that my 
mother "cleaned up" my room when I went into the Army. I hope my wife 
doesn't take it into her head to do the same thing when I take a long hike. 
I know my accumulation of 'junk' annoys her.
