Sniffy the Pup #16 — F (6.0)
Standard Comics, March 1953
Golden Age · Funny Animals / Children’s · 36 pages · 10¢ cover price
Sniffy the Pup #16 is a charming early-1950s funny-animal comic from Standard Comics, part of the wave of lighthearted children’s titles produced during the Golden Age. These books were designed for heavy reading and broad circulation, making surviving mid-grade copies increasingly uncommon.
This issue includes multiple Sniffy stories such as “The Magic Ring” and “A-Haunting We Will Go,” along with a mix of short comics and text features starring characters like Dizzy Duck, Punchy Squirrel, Hank and Kathy, and others. The format reflects the era’s variety-driven approach to kids’ comics, blending humor, simple morality tales, and playful animal antics.
A solid representative example of Golden Age funny-animal publishing, appealing to collectors of children’s comics, Standard titles, and mid-century Americana.
Maj. Picto’s Grading Notes:
F (6.0). A clean, presentable copy with moderate, even wear consistent with the grade. Displays well overall, with typical handling and age-related wear for an early-1950s children’s comic.
