Description
This 1961 Dondi Picture Puzzle, called "Water Fun", is in amazing condition!
Found in an estate sale on a cardboard backer board in a protective bag. We didn't want to remove it for the photos, so that's why there's a bit of glare.
All the pieces are here and are in great shape.
According to wikipedia, "Dondi was a daily comic strip about a large-eyed war orphan of the same name. Created by Gus Edson and Irwin Hasen, it ran in more than 100 newspapers for three decades (September 25, 1955 to June 8, 1986). Dondi's original backstory describes him as a five-year-old World War II orphan of Italian descent. The boy had no memory of his parents or his name, so when a pretty Red Cross worker said he was "a dandy boy," he thought she was naming him "Dondi." Two soldiers who spoke no Italian, Ted Wills and Whitey McGowan, found the child wandering through a war-torn village. The soldiers brought the child back to the United States and Ted eventually became his adoptive father."
