Tough little book, and I do mean little.  It's digest-sized from 1944:

Wow, the powers of the auto-correct function on the boards are truly bedazzling. For the translation of

insufficiently_thoughtful_person”

see the red stripe of text between Ace Kelly and Dinky Dinkerton a couple posts above.

A real barrel of monkeys and knee-slappers, no doubt!

I have been on the hunt for all of the Dum Dum the Clown appearances. His antics slay me. This is the grail of Dum Dum collectors like me.

On the old boards, I think you could see the censored word when you quoted it.  When they made the transition, for a while the censored word just disappeared.  Now it looks like we're back to insufficiently_thoughtful_person.

But seriously, behind his mask of boisterous carnie hijinks, Dum Dum the Man was a sensitive soul with a fondness for the work of Wittgenstein and Echo & The Bunnymen. I only see Dum Dum appearances skyrocketing in price in the days to come.
