Indexer Notes

Dime Action Books were 4 inches wide by 5.5 inches high. The stories were written in prose alternating with full page drawings, like Big Little Books. This sequence reprints 96 pages of illustrations from the Dime Action book in sideways format of two tiers of four panels each. Only the illustrations and captions are reprinted, not the prose.
