Description Cover by Fred Meagher. Stories and art by Charles Biro, August Froehlich, Stan Schendel, and Fred Meagher. When movie cowboy Tom Mix's radio show hit it big, sponsor Ralston Purina offered Tom Mix Comics by mail for two boxtops of any Ralston cereal. The art, often uncredited, is exceptionally nice in this series. Tom investigates when Dad's cattle are rustled by something that appears to be a werewolf. Miserly Uncle Amos wants to save money on a toll bridge by crossing the river in a bucket, in a story with art by comics legend Charles Biro. Tom suspects rumors of a Comanche raid are just a diversion for a stagecoach holdup. Plus activities pages and magic tricks. And a vintage ad for Ralston cereal prizes, including "genuine gold ore from the Comstock lode" and a Tom Mix toy plane. The Were-Wolf of the Range!; The Fumble Family with Amos Q.
