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 detective and the F.B.I. Plus
science fiction action and Sparkling Stars provides a potpourri of entertainment.
Sparkling Stars began publishing by Holyoke Press starting in June of 1944
