As I keep digging in my collection I have found Space Beavers! This was a promotional comic book from Cities Service gasoline. It probably was a give-away with purchase. It reflects the early 60s where the Mercury launches had taken place and we were looking ahead to the future. The whole premise is a beaver who is invited to go on one of the early space voyages. The twist is that his son falls asleep during discussions about space facts and dreams of a moon trip. It is campy and strange in the best way and I am sure unfamiliar to most of you. Just the kind of thing I love to find and share.
The Eager Beaver Space Book. (Promotional comic from Cities Service Gasoline.) (32 P.) 1962.
