McClure Newspaper Syndicate — December 13, 1953
Description
Printed Archie Sunday proof sheet by Bob Montana (1920–1975), produced for nationwide distribution by the McClure Newspaper Syndicate and published on December 13, 1953. Printed on thin, glossy paper with visible registration marks and crop guides, this piece is a newspaper Sunday insert / color supplement production page, not original art.
The strip centers on a “magic earrings” gag involving Betty and Veronica, spiraling into classic Montana-era romantic misunderstanding and slapstick escalation. As a production artifact, the page preserves Montana’s finished layouts exactly as prepared for newspaper printing during Archie’s peak early-1950s Sunday run.
