“Negro All Comics” Article?
I’m looking for a 1947 issue of Time Magazine with an article on “All Negro Comics.” I looked up Readers Guide to Periodical Literature but to no avail. I was also told to look for All Negro Comics in Readers Guide but I couldn’t find anything under the subject “Negro.”
Your instincts are dead-on. Readers Guide Retrospective online (through Database Names on the library home page) is the right place to check. And like you, I didn’t find an article called “All Negro Comics.” So I googled a bit to see if I could find some clues. I found a blog entry http://mercurie.blogspot.com/2007_08_12_archive.html that talked about a July 1947 Time Magazine article that mentioned All Negro Comics. That led me to redesign my search and find this citation below:
Title: Ace Harlem to the rescue
Journal Name: Time
Source: Time v. 50 (July 14 1947) p. 75
Database: Readers’ Guide Retrospective
Time Magazine has an online archive for this period: http://www.time.com/time/archive and the article above is here:
