Design of the Week--Contact Comics Celebrates the END of World War II

Each week, we post a limited-edition design, to be sold for exactly 7 days, then replaced with another!
This week, one of many 1940s comic book covers celebrating the end of World War II.
It's Contact Comics #8 by L B Cole, an absolutely magnificent poster-style design showing aviators of numerous nations that's well-suited for use on t-shirts, mugs, and other collectibles!
And since it's non-violent, it's perfect on our baby / toddler wear as well!
