Spider-Man and Power Pack [National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse comic book]
Description
An account of the resource
Marvel giveaway comic book produced in cooperation with the National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse. Children are urged to tell a trusted adult if something has happened, and to know that there are phone numbers to call if you need help. While speaking to one young boy whose babysitter has abused him, Spider-Man reveals that he too was abused as a child. <br /><br />Letter inside front cover is signed by Anne H. Cohn, D.P.H., Executive Director National Committee for Prevention of Child Abuse:<br /><br />"The purpose of this book is to teach you how to protect yourself from sexual abuse and what to do if it happens to you. I shows you that even people you know and trust can touch you in ways or in places that feel uncomfortable or yukky or just not right. Or, they can make you touch them in private places. And this book tells you that if this happens, it's not your fault--you can say no--and there is help out there."<br /><br />Back cover: "The National Education Association recognizes this publication as a viable attempt to education children about the problem of child sexual abuse."

Description
An account of the resource
Educational comic book produced and distributed in cooperation with the U.S. Department of Transportation's National Safety Belt Campaign.<br /><br />A message from Elizabeth Hanford Dole, Secretary of the U.S. Department of Transportation is printed inside the front cover. <br /><br />"I know you're all looking forward to gettin gyour driver's licenses soon. But driving a car is a big responsibility. So here are a couple of questions for you to think about. How important do you feel it is to buckle up your safety belt when you get into a car? Do you think you or any of your friends will bever be involved in an accident? Maybe you've never thought about it, but you should. Every ten seconds, someone is injured in a crash. And every ten minutes, someone is killed. You can expect to be in an accident at least once in your life. If you use your safety belt, you more than double your chances of surviving."

Dennis the Menace Takes a Poke at Poison
Description
An account of the resource
This giveaway comic book seeks to educate children and their parents about the poisonous nature of many items commonly found in the home. It urges parents to "Poison Proof Your Home."<br /><br />A publication created by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Public Health Service, Food and Drug Administration.<br />HHS Publication No. (FDA) 81-7005. <br /><br />Text on back cover:<br /><br />"Most products are made to look attractive so people will buy them--even products that can be poisonous. But things made attractive for consumers are also attractive to children. Many poisonings that occur involve children who are too youg and innocent to 'know better.' Children often can't recognize danger signals such as label warnings, strange odors, or peculiar tastes. Actually many poisonous things are attractive to children because the taste or smell GOOD, such as lemon scented furniture polish."

Escape from Fear
Description
An account of the resource
Giveaway comic book distributed by Planned Parenthood Federation of America Publications. Revised edition of a 1956 publication. <br /><br />Fear of an unwanted pregnancy makes intimacy stressful for the Harpers. Learning about contraception from Planned Parenthood helps them plan for children and eases their fears.<br /><br />Cover teaser "Joan and Ken Harper's marriage was on the rocks--because they loved each other!"<br /><br />Final panel: Joan Harper says, "Planned Parenthood helped us save our marriage. Someday when our children are older, we may want another baby. That's why planned parenthood is so wonderful. It doesn't mean not having children-it means spacing them so they come when we can give them the kind of love and care they deserve!"<br /><br />Back cover lists six regional Planned Parenthood-World Population centers. The address for The Virginia League for Planned Parenthood (2009 Monument Ave., Richmond 20, VA.) is stamped at the bottom of the page.<br /><br />"This publication was prepared by the Planned Parenthood Federation of America under the supervision of Dr. Gordon W. Perkin, Associate Medical Director, for the use of persons who are married or 21 years or older. If you want birth control advice consult your doctor, your public health department, the clinic at a hostpital or the doctor at your local Planned Parenthood Center...."

Countdown on Excellence
Description
An account of the resource
Public service comic published as a part of the National Social Welfare Assembly Comics Project. The Comics Project lasted from August 1949 - July 1967 and produced over 200 pages promoting citizenship and social values. <br /><br />Publisher's Note: "Published as a public service in cooperation with The National Social Welfare Assembly, coordinating organization for national health, welfare and recreation agencies of the U.S."<br /><br />A father talks to his son Jerry about his failure to do a good job cleaning up the garage. Jerry says, "Aw, Dad, What's the difference? It's not very important." His father replies, "Hmm...With that kind of attitude, you'll get into sloppy work havits. If everyone felt that way about his job, what do you think would happen?" <br /><br />The father goes on to give examples of people we count on to do their jobs: a plumber, switchboard operator, garage mechanic, and finally "a man who works on a space capsule." Jerry concludes, "I get it Dad...Every job, whether it's big or small, is important enough to do right!"

Description
An account of the resource
This comic book reprints a fable about prejudice and racial harmony by Al Capp. The story first appeared in Capp's <em>L'il Abner</em> comic strip. The comic book, printed and distributed by the Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, tells a fable about prejudice and racial harmony. <br /><br />When a family with square eyes moves into Dogpatch, the round-eyed residents form a mob to drive the newcomers away. When one of the square-eyed children is hurt, Mammy Yokum discovers that what she has in common with the new folks is more important than their differences. She stops the mob and helps her neighbors get to know the new family.<br /><br />Mammy Yokum declares, "We is all square shooters, so we gotta give them folks wif th' square eyes a square deal!! Th' l'il diff'runces between folks shouldn't hide th' big things thass th' same 'bout all of us!!"<br /><br /><br />The foreward to this publication was written by Henry Edward Schultz, National Chairman, Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith. <br />The postscript was written by American author, Herman Wouk.

Here Comes Whiteman [American Nazi Party comic book]
Description
An account of the resource
White supremacist comic book created for the American Nazi Party by member John Patler. <br /><br />Born John C. Patsalos, John Patler joined the American Nazi Party in 1960 and changed his name. The ANP had its headquarters in Arlington, Va. <br /><br />In 1967 Patler was expelled from the ANP after disagreeing with founder George Lincoln Rockwell. On August 25, 1967, Patler shot and killed Rockwell at an Arlington, Va. shopping center.<br /><br />"Here Comes Whiteman" was part of the ANP's efforts to spread their ideas to a larger audience. Their promotional campaign included a variety of publications, flyers, and even 45 RPM records of white supremacist music. Supporters of the ANP were expected to read and distribute materials like this comic and The Stormtrooper Magazine. <br /><br />In this comic book, Whiteman is the secret identity of Lew Cor ("Roc Wel" spelled backwards) who makes deliveries for the Arlington Milk Co. Lew Cor speaks the secret words "Lieh Geis" ("Sieg Heil" backwards), and in a flash of lightning is transformed into Whiteman, a costumed superhero with a swastika on his chest. In this issue Whiteman fights an "interplanetary duel" with characters named "The Jew from Outer Space" and "Supercoon."
