Obscure cartooning "how to" fanzine apparently from the '50s. I was uncertain of the actual publication date but the official copyright registrations for Vol. 1 of this series (Catalog of Copyright Entries, found via Google Books) appear to be for 1954-1955. There's also a second volume in this series that started in 1967.

Contents include: Cartooning for Trade Journals; How to Prepare and Submit Cartoons; Eight More Types of Cartoon Gags; How I Earn Over $100 a Week Cartooning for the Trade Journals; How to Sell Your Cartoons; How to Write the 7 Types of Cartoon Gags; lots of gag cartoons; a few pages of comics; more.

Artists include: Ken Lizorty, Don Robertson, Leroy Dozier, Chief Kufahl, Lew Card, Larry Fugate

Writers include: Ken Lizorty, Lew Card

I'm not certain but it may be that some (or all) of the credited artists are pseudonyms.
