I have a book called Window To the Future which features classic ads for TVs from magazines. Yes, several wordy ads tried to promote the idea that television is good for children.
A real pro-TV for children ad: https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/59c5099849fc2b0179b94f8b/1517920872566-DIVFVA100U7UKJVT6MRK/Television501114.jpg
The Headed and the Motorola Ad look like from the 1940’s. Bob Scott was probably not born yet. Motion Picture Comic #108 was from 1952 but does not have the same header or Motorola Ad and of course not the “Bear with Me” comic.

Ah Vintage. When a dime was a dime and a spoke was a spoke.

My family’s first tv was a Motorola. We bought it in 1956. It lasted 25 years with only an occasional repair needed.

I can see this as an old Hanna-Barbara cartoon with the music and sound effects of that time.

Why so many repeat comics?
