The Flintstones and Pebbles #38 (Charlton Comics, June 1975)
This is an original Bronze Age comic book titled 'The Flintstones and Pebbles,' issue number 38, published by Charlton Comics with a cover date of June 1975. The cover art features a vibrant green background and depicts Fred Flintstone attempting to give Dino a bath, resulting in a humorous 'SPLAT' as Dino slips on a bar of soap. The cover price is marked at 25 cents. Notable markings include the Charlton Comics circular logo in the upper left, the Comics Code Authority seal of approval in the upper right, and the attribution to 'A Hanna-Barbera Production.' The artwork is credited to Ray Dirgo, whose signature is visible in the lower-left corner. The physical condition appears to be moderately preserved but shows signs of age and wear. Visible issues include some minor blunting and color stress along the spine and corners, slight edge wear, and a small crease in the upper left corner near the Charlton logo. The paper quality likely shows some off-white to yellowish toning consistent with 1970s newsprint. The printing quality is typical for the era, utilizing industrial offset lithography with visible Ben-Day dots in the skin tones and background gradients. Overall, it is a well-maintained example of mid-70s licensed character animation comics.
