In a world filled with gangsters and petty criminals preying on the innocent, Chester Gould's comic strip detective Dick Tracy was the hard-boiled smackdown. This is my collection of Tracy stuff and items of interest, in one place. The place where Tracy hangs his hat.

As sweet as it gets...
In keeping with the candy motif of the last post, here's a nice candy bar wrapper from the 1950's. Tracy looks a bit happier on this so perhaps the taste was better than the caramels. If you've ever seen any of the strips from the 1940's, (with Tracy and his department-issue sidearm dispatching villains to the land of no return with alarming regularity) you know this is as sweet as Tracy gets.
