Another iconic "Kids Reading Comics" shot; this time its from around December 1951; which is when the center comic (Girls' Romances #13, cover by Alex Toth) was on sale!
i remember in the early 60's going to a similar shop in Staten Island with my dad. We would sit at the counter and have an "egg cream" while we read the comics from the stacks. He had all his comics from when he was a kid...Batman, Sups etc. How I wish I still had them!
