University of Missouri (Mizzou) Columbia MO memorabilia from the estate of a graduate during the latter 40s to mid 50s when he was a student there. He kept it all!
Showme was a student-produced humor magazine from the 1920s to the 1960s that featured work by University of Missouri writers and illustrators. It was ranked as one of the top student publications in the country in the 1940s and 1950s. Profusely illustrated with art and photos, and, of course, lots of nostalgic ads.
February 1952 - 36 pages. 8.5 X 11. Cover art by Herb Knapp. "WHY FIGHT IT?" Issue. Front Cover GOOD, Back Covers POOR due to top portion of back cover ripped away, otherwise typical soiling rubbing, scuffing, fading, and edge wear. Inner pages GOOD, erasable pencil scribbles on first 2 inside pages (ads), occasional soiling, no marks, tears, holes, or missing text. Features Judy Klawans and Terry Rees as Girl and Boy of the Month, as well as finalists for the ShowMe Queen contest.
