by W. H. Fawcett

Captain Billy's Whiz Bang was an iconic magazine of wit and humor launched by W.H. Fawcett in 1919. Each issue was packed with jokes, quips, and humorous bits of writing. It grew in popularity each year, and Fawcett's success led to the formation of the well-known Fawcett Publications, which issued Whiz Comics and introduced Captain Marvel. This particular issue from October 1921 features articles from "Our New York Gossip," "Arthur Neale’s Page," and "Our Movie Gossip," as well as the usual features such as "Smokehouse Poetry," "Pasture Pot Pourri," and "Whiz Bang Editorials."
