Sparkling Stars is a great example of an anthology series that had something for
everyone. There were plenty of sports stories with Boxie Weaver handling boxing
and Speed Spaulding playing everything from football to crew. There is military
humor with Private Plopp and thrilling World War Two tales with the HellÕs Angels,
art by a young Carmine Infantino. There are funny animal stories and humor
fantasy stories with Ali Baba. Add various exploits of private detectives and the
F.B.I, Plus science fiction action and Sparkling Stars provides a potpourri of
entertainment.
Sparkling Stars began publishing in June of 1944 by Holyoke Press
All books in this series are available in both color and black & white as well as in
hardcover and soft cover editions.
