The Catholic Treasure Chest Treasury of Advent and Christmas Comics

For more than 20 years, Catholic publisher George Pflaum’s “Treasure Chest of Fun & Fact” comic books were a regular feature of parochial school life, reflecting not only the social and cultural atmosphere of the day, but showcasing t he work of a number of notable talents in the comic book world. But they also captured the spirit of Catholic life in the mid-century and presented often charming and evocative stories aimed at enriching and informing the faith lives of thousands of children across the US.

This volume collects stories from the series relating to the seasons of Advent, Christmas, and Epiphany through Candlemas, or the Feast of the Presentation in February. Included are notable feast days which fall within, and have become associated with, these seasons, among other features, in the hope that generations to come may be inspired, just as generations past may be taken back to golden memories of yore. .
