Holder Posey
or Step Into My Darkroom and We'll See What Develops Author(s):
Billy St. john
Nothing much ever happens in Holeinroad, a little town Way Out West, according to gossips Gilda Lillie and Echo Chambers. (You'll have to forgive Echo. She was born in a canyon and talks kinda funny.) Nothing much, that is, except the exciting tale of Holder Posey, the felonious traveling photographer, and his attempt to rob the vault of the Golden Spittoon Saloon. Gilda and Echo recount the story of Holder and his novice assistant, Candide Cameron, who are thwarted in their evil actions by our hero Drew Deline, a poor sketch artist. Ah, both Drew and Holder have their eyes on Ida Claire Yawl, the fair school teacher from Atlanta. When Ida rebuffs Holder's advances, he ties her to the vault door and attempts to blow up both of them with dynamite! Never fear! Drew saves the day and soundly thrashes Holder in a stop-motion fight you have to see to believe! Other wacky citizens of Holeinroad include Pastor Pepper; Winnie Gallop, a pony express rider; Sheriff Freddy Katt and his deputy, Deadeye Orb; Mother Sweetums and her Baby Boo-Boo (who is very large for his age!); Dr. Bill and the scalpel-wielding Nurse Cutter; and the saloon owner and her hostesses. The Wild, Wild West was never wilder or funnier!
