Strip ends w/Spike pulling link of hot dogs attached to picnic basket, w/Sugar proclaiming it "The Weirdest Pull- Toy I Ever Saw!!" Art is by Sheldon Mayer (1917-1991), who created, wrote and drew Sugar And Spike. Mayer has signed first panel, adding his initials below last panel (which notes story was a reader request).
